Blue By YouPPGvsPale GreenRAL ClassicΔE 21.9Distinct difference

Blue By You (PPG) and Pale Green (RAL Classic) come from different manufacturers. Blue By You reads as blue, while Pale Green reads as green — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 15-point LRV gap — 46 for Blue By You vs 31 for Pale Green — means Blue By You will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 21.9 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.
