Roasted Chestnut vs Curio Gray
Roasted Chestnut (PPG) and Curio Gray (Sherwin-Williams) come from different manufacturers. These are both greige-greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within greige-grey to land. Their light reflectance values are nearly the same — 27 vs 26 — so neither will read significantly brighter or darker than the other. A ΔE of 1.9 puts them in subtle territory — distinguishable in direct comparison, less so from across a room. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.
