Soft Amethyst vs Snowbound
Soft Amethyst (PPG) and Snowbound (Sherwin-Williams) come from different manufacturers. Soft Amethyst reads as pink-purple, while Snowbound reads as beige-greige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 32-point LRV gap — 83 for Snowbound vs 51 for Soft Amethyst — means Snowbound will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 21.5 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.

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.
