Horseradish vs Sphagnum Moss

HorseradishPPGvsSphagnum MossPPGΔE 52.0 — Very different colors

Both from PPG's palette. These are both beige-yellows, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige-yellow to land. Horseradish (LRV 81) reflects noticeably more light than Sphagnum Moss (LRV 13), a difference of 68 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. With a ΔE of 52.0, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question. 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. 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.
