Objective vs Superhero Gray
Objective is a Jotun color while Superhero Gray comes from PPG. Hue-wise, Objective belongs to the greige-grey family and Superhero Gray to the blue-grey family. At LRV 50 vs 25, Objective will read as the brighter of the two — a 25-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. At ΔE 21.2, these are genuinely distinct colors — a strong contrast if used together, or a meaningful choice between two different directions. Below you'll find 6 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Objective vs Superhero Gray in Real Spaces
6 real rooms side by side. Seeing Objective and Superhero Gray in actual rooms makes the difference concrete; browse the spaces below to get a feel for how each color lives on a wall.
Living Room
Living rooms test a color across a full range of conditions — morning sun, afternoon shade, and evening lamp light all shift how both of these read. Objective returns significantly more light to the room — in a smaller or darker space, that difference in perceived brightness is hard to miss.
Kitchen
Kitchen lighting tends to be bright and directional, which sharpens contrast and makes undertone differences more apparent. The LRV gap is large enough that Objective will make the room feel meaningfully brighter than Superhero Gray would.
Dining Room
Dining room light is typically the warmest in the house, which shifts both colors toward the red end of the spectrum compared to daylight. Objective reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Superhero Gray.
Bathroom
Bathrooms amplify color — the enclosed space and reflective surfaces make what reads subtle elsewhere feel more present here. The LRV gap is large enough that Objective will make the room feel meaningfully brighter than Superhero Gray would.
Home Office
In a home office, wall color sits in your peripheral vision for hours at a time, so temperature and undertone matter more than you might expect. The LRV gap is large enough that Objective will make the room feel meaningfully brighter than Superhero Gray would.
House
At full exterior scale, the difference between these two colors becomes much easier to judge than from a small chip. The LRV gap is large enough that Objective will make the room feel meaningfully brighter than Superhero Gray would.

Objective vs Superhero Gray Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Objective on one side and Superhero Gray 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.
