Peregrine vs Gravity

PeregrinePPGvsGravityValsparΔE 6.5Noticeable difference

Where Peregrine belongs to PPG's range, Gravity is a Valspar color. Peregrine reads as blue-grey, while Gravity reads as grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Peregrine (LRV 68) reflects noticeably more light than Gravity (LRV 56), a difference of 12 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 6.5 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice. Below you'll find 6 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.

Peregrine vs Gravity in Real Spaces

6 real rooms side by side. Peregrine and Gravity are close enough that the difference can be hard to judge from a chip alone — these photos show how each reads at scale, across different spaces and lighting conditions.

Living Room

In a living room, color works across both daylight and evening light — the same wall can read very differently at noon and at 8pm. The LRV gap is large enough that Peregrine will make the room feel meaningfully brighter than Gravity would.

Mudroom

Mudrooms are seen in passing, often under whatever light comes through the door — a context that favors colors with some depth. Peregrine returns significantly more light to the room — in a smaller or darker space, that difference in perceived brightness is hard to miss.

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.
