Elegant Ivory vs Dough

Elegant IvoryPPGvsDoughTikkurilaΔE 1.5Subtle difference

Elegant Ivory (PPG) and Dough (Tikkurila) come from different manufacturers. These are both beiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige to land. The 3-point LRV gap — 82 for Dough vs 79 for Elegant Ivory — means Dough will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 1.5 puts them in subtle territory — distinguishable in direct comparison, less so from across a 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.

Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
