Summer Linnen vs Water Chestnut
Where Summer Linnen belongs to Dulux's range, Water Chestnut is a PPG color. These are both beiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige to land. Summer Linnen (LRV 79) reflects noticeably more light than Water Chestnut (LRV 75), a difference of 4 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. At ΔE 0.7, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room.
