The 3-point LRV gap — 52 for Plunge vs 49 for Imagine — means Plunge will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 2.0 puts them in subtle territory — distinguishable in direct comparison, less so from across a room. Below you'll find 1 real-room photo comparison where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Plunge vs Imagine in Real Spaces
1 real room side by side. Plunge and Imagine are close enough that the difference can be hard to judge from a chip alone — these photos show how each reads at scale, across different spaces and lighting conditions.
Living Room
A living room wall sees more varied light than almost any other surface in the house, which makes the choice between these two more nuanced than a chip suggests. Plunge reads slightly lighter here — a subtle but real difference in how open the space feels.

Plunge vs Imagine Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Plunge on one side and Imagine on the other.
Digital color is approximate. These simulations are generated from the manufacturer's hex values and overlaid on grayscale room photos — your screen's calibration, brightness, and viewing angle all affect how they render. Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
