Windsor WayPPGvsPale GreenRAL ClassicΔE 36.5Very different colors

Windsor Way (PPG) and Pale Green (RAL Classic) come from different manufacturers. Windsor Way reads as blue, while Pale Green reads as green — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 25-point LRV gap — 56 for Windsor Way vs 31 for Pale Green — means Windsor Way will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 36.5 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.

Digital color is approximate.

Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
