PPG
·
Behr

Bright Idea is a PPG color while Classic Silver comes from Behr. At LRV 53 vs 48, Bright Idea will read as the brighter of the two — a 5-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. At ΔE 49.6, these are genuinely distinct colors — a strong contrast if used together, or a meaningful choice between two different directions.

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.
