Plum Blossom vs Vogue Green

Plum Blossom and Vogue Green come from the same Sherwin-Williams collection. Plum Blossom reads as purple, while Vogue Green reads as green-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 20-point LRV gap — 28 for Plum Blossom vs 9 for Vogue Green — means Plum Blossom will open up a space more effectively. Where Plum Blossom leans cool, Vogue Green reads neutral — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 47.5 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.

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