China WhitePPGvsAgreeable GraySherwin-WilliamsΔE 9.5Noticeable difference

China White (PPG) and Agreeable Gray (Sherwin-Williams) come from different manufacturers. Hue-wise, China White belongs to the beige-white family and Agreeable Gray to the greige-grey family. The 18-point LRV gap — 78 for China White vs 60 for Agreeable Gray — means China White will open up a space more effectively. ΔE 9.5 means they're clearly different, but not dramatically so — they'd pair well in the same room. 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.
