Calabash vs Horseradish
Both from PPG's palette. These are both beige-yellows, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige-yellow to land. Horseradish (LRV 81) reflects noticeably more light than Calabash (LRV 78), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. With a ΔE of 36.1, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.
