Pine Ridge vs Surf Green
Pine Ridge (PPG) and Surf Green (Sherwin-Williams) come from different manufacturers. These are both blue-greens, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within blue-green to land. The 4-point LRV gap — 25 for Pine Ridge vs 21 for Surf Green — means Pine Ridge will open up a space more effectively. ΔE 4.2 means they're clearly different, but not dramatically so — they'd pair well in the same room. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.
