Gaia vs Thin Ice
Gaia and Thin Ice come from the same PPG collection. Hue-wise, Gaia belongs to the beige family and Thin Ice to the grey family. The 19-point LRV gap — 70 for Thin Ice vs 51 for Gaia — means Thin Ice will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 21.2 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

Gaia vs Thin Ice Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Gaia on one side and Thin Ice on the other.
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.
