Delicate White vs White Smoke

Both from PPG's palette. Hue-wise, Delicate White belongs to the white family and White Smoke to the beige-greige family. Delicate White (LRV 88) reflects noticeably more light than White Smoke (LRV 80), a difference of 8 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 7.7 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
