Aqua Whisper vs Magic Dust

Aqua WhisperPPGvsMagic DustPPGΔE 36.7Very different colors

Aqua Whisper and Magic Dust come from the same PPG collection. Hue-wise, Aqua Whisper belongs to the blue family and Magic Dust to the grey family. The 48-point LRV gap — 69 for Aqua Whisper vs 21 for Magic Dust — means Aqua Whisper will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 36.7 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

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.
