Summer Wheat vs Rice Grain
Where Summer Wheat belongs to PPG's range, Rice Grain is a Sherwin-Williams color. These are both beiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige to land. Rice Grain (LRV 64) reflects noticeably more light than Summer Wheat (LRV 60), a difference of 4 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. At ΔE 1.2, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.
