Black MagicPPGvsPolo PonyPPGΔE 57.6 — Very different colors

Black Magic and Polo Pony come from the same PPG collection. Black Magic reads as grey, while Polo Pony reads as beige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 29-point LRV gap — 33 for Polo Pony vs 4 for Black Magic — means Polo Pony will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 57.6 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.
