Violet Eclipse vs Evergreen Fog

Violet EclipsePPGvsEvergreen FogSherwin-WilliamsΔE 30.3Very different colors

Violet Eclipse (PPG) and Evergreen Fog (Sherwin-Williams) come from different manufacturers. Violet Eclipse reads as purple, while Evergreen Fog reads as green-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Their light reflectance values are nearly the same — 28 vs 30 — so neither will read significantly brighter or darker than the other. A ΔE of 30.3 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.
