Roasted Chestnut vs Agreeable Gray

Roasted ChestnutPPGvsAgreeable GraySherwin-WilliamsΔE 23.4Distinct difference

Where Roasted Chestnut belongs to PPG's range, Agreeable Gray is a Sherwin-Williams color. These are both greige-greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within greige-grey to land. Agreeable Gray (LRV 60) reflects noticeably more light than Roasted Chestnut (LRV 27), a difference of 33 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. With a ΔE of 23.4, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
