Fresh Basil vs Cement grey
Fresh Basil (PPG) and Cement grey (RAL Classic) come from different manufacturers. These are both greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within grey to land. The 13-point LRV gap — 24 for Cement grey vs 11 for Fresh Basil — means Cement grey will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 14.8 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.
