Ash vs Gauzy White

AshPPGvsGauzy WhiteSherwin-WilliamsΔE 1.5Subtle difference

Where Ash belongs to PPG's range, Gauzy White is a Sherwin-Williams color. Both sit in the beige-greige family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. They have nearly identical light reflectance values (73 vs 72), so they'll read as similarly Light in most lighting conditions. At ΔE 1.5, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room. 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.

Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
