Alpaca Wool vs Imperial Purple

Alpaca Wool and Imperial Purple come from the same PPG collection. Alpaca Wool reads as beige, while Imperial Purple reads as blue-purple — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 58-point LRV gap — 66 for Alpaca Wool vs 8 for Imperial Purple — means Alpaca Wool will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 66.0 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.
