Powdered Petals vs Whirligig
Both from PPG's palette. These are both pink-reds, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within pink-red to land. Whirligig (LRV 64) reflects noticeably more light than Powdered Petals (LRV 61), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. At ΔE 2.4, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room. 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.
