Cord vs Gaia
Cord (Farrow & Ball) and Gaia (PPG) come from different manufacturers. These are both beiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige to land. The 4-point LRV gap — 55 for Cord vs 51 for Gaia — means Cord will open up a space more effectively. ΔE 4.4 means they're clearly different, but not dramatically so — they'd pair well in the same room. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

Cord vs Gaia Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Cord on one side and Gaia 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.
