S 1000-N vs Peregrine
Where S 1000-N belongs to NCS's range, Peregrine is a PPG color. S 1000-N reads as grey, while Peregrine reads as blue-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. S 1000-N (LRV 74) reflects noticeably more light than Peregrine (LRV 68), a difference of 6 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 3.4 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice. Below you'll find 2 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
S 1000-N vs Peregrine in Real Spaces
2 real rooms side by side. S 1000-N and Peregrine are close enough that the difference can be hard to judge from a chip alone — these photos show how each reads at scale, across different spaces and lighting conditions.
Living Room
In a living room, color works across both daylight and evening light — the same wall can read very differently at noon and at 8pm. The brightness difference is modest but present — S 1000-N gives the walls a little more lift.
Dining Room
A dining room lit by a dimmed pendant or candles is one of the most forgiving environments for paint — warm light softens almost everything. S 1000-N has the edge in reflectance, which shows as a quiet sense of added space rather than an obvious contrast.

S 1000-N vs Peregrine Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see S 1000-N on one side and Peregrine 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.
