Purity vs Stone's Throw

PurityPPGvsStone's ThrowPPGΔE 53.4Very different colors

Purity and Stone's Throw come from the same PPG collection. Purity reads as beige, while Stone's Throw reads as grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 69-point LRV gap — 80 for Purity vs 11 for Stone's Throw — means Purity will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 53.4 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives. 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. 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.
