Black Magic vs Stone Gray
Black Magic and Stone Gray come from the same PPG collection. Black Magic reads as grey, while Stone Gray reads as greige-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 26-point LRV gap — 30 for Stone Gray vs 4 for Black Magic — means Stone Gray will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 36.0 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.

Digital color is approximate.
