Outback vs Golden Gate
Where Outback belongs to PPG's range, Golden Gate is a Sherwin-Williams color. These are both beiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige to land. Golden Gate (LRV 46) reflects noticeably more light than Outback (LRV 38), a difference of 8 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 4.8 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.
