Great Gray vs Snowbound
Where Great Gray belongs to PPG's range, Snowbound is a Sherwin-Williams color. These are both beige-greiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige-greige to land. Snowbound (LRV 83) reflects noticeably more light than Great Gray (LRV 53), a difference of 30 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. With a ΔE of 15.2, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
