Swan LakePPGvsPale GreenRAL ClassicΔE 30.1Very different colors

Swan Lake (PPG) and Pale Green (RAL Classic) come from different manufacturers. Hue-wise, Swan Lake belongs to the blue family and Pale Green to the green family. The 42-point LRV gap — 73 for Swan Lake vs 31 for Pale Green — means Swan Lake will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 30.1 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.
