Lucky Shamrock vs Magic Dust

Lucky ShamrockPPGvsMagic DustPPGΔE 20.8Distinct difference

Both are PPG colors. Lucky Shamrock reads as blue, while Magic Dust reads as grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. At LRV 21 vs 17, Magic Dust will read as the brighter of the two — a 4-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. At ΔE 20.8, these are genuinely distinct colors — a strong contrast if used together, or a meaningful choice between two different directions. 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.

Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
