Pine Needle vs Tenderness
Pine Needle (Dulux) and Tenderness (PPG) come from different manufacturers. These are both greens, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within green to land. The 59-point LRV gap — 66 for Tenderness vs 7 for Pine Needle — means Tenderness will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 57.6 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.

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.
