Sea Lavender vs Windsor Purple

Sea LavenderPPGvsWindsor PurplePPGΔE 3.7Noticeable difference

Sea Lavender and Windsor Purple come from the same PPG collection. These are both purples, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within purple to land. The 3-point LRV gap — 51 for Sea Lavender vs 48 for Windsor Purple — means Sea Lavender will open up a space more effectively. ΔE 3.7 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.

Digital color is approximate.

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