First Light vs Agreeable Gray
First Light (Little Greene) and Agreeable Gray (Sherwin-Williams) come from different manufacturers. First Light reads as beige-yellow, while Agreeable Gray reads as greige-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 31-point LRV gap — 92 for First Light vs 60 for Agreeable Gray — means First Light will open up a space more effectively. Where First Light leans yellow, Agreeable Gray reads warm — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 17.8 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.
