Smokey SagePPGvsThin IcePPGΔE 33.5 — Very different colors

Smokey Sage and Thin Ice come from the same PPG collection. Hue-wise, Smokey Sage belongs to the green-grey family and Thin Ice to the grey family. The 47-point LRV gap — 70 for Thin Ice vs 23 for Smokey Sage — means Thin Ice will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 33.5 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.
