Zen vs Telegrey 4
Zen is a PPG color while Telegrey 4 comes from RAL Classic. Zen reads as blue, while Telegrey 4 reads as grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. At LRV 69 vs 59, Zen will read as the brighter of the two — a 10-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. At ΔE 6.5, the difference is perceptible but not dramatic — the two can work harmoniously in the same space.

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.
