Blue Opal vs Evergreen Fog
Blue Opal (PPG) and Evergreen Fog (Sherwin-Williams) come from different manufacturers. Blue Opal reads as blue, while Evergreen Fog reads as green-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 26-point LRV gap — 56 for Blue Opal vs 30 for Evergreen Fog — means Blue Opal will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 24.9 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.

5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Blue Opal on one side and Evergreen Fog on the other.
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.
