Be Spontaneous vs Cement grey

Be SpontaneousPPGvsCement greyRAL ClassicΔE 51.7Very different colors

Be Spontaneous (PPG) and Cement grey (RAL Classic) come from different manufacturers. Be Spontaneous reads as green-yellow, while Cement grey reads as grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 26-point LRV gap — 50 for Be Spontaneous vs 24 for Cement grey — means Be Spontaneous will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 51.7 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.
