HorseradishPPGvsTropical TidePPGΔE 41.2 — Very different colors

Horseradish and Tropical Tide come from the same PPG collection. Horseradish reads as beige-yellow, while Tropical Tide reads as blue-green — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 33-point LRV gap — 81 for Horseradish vs 48 for Tropical Tide — means Horseradish will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 41.2 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.

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.
