G488 vs H498
G488 and H498 come from the same Tikkurila collection. G488 reads as grey, while H498 reads as blue-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 4-point LRV gap — 66 for H498 vs 63 for G488 — means H498 will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 2.8 puts them in subtle territory — distinguishable in direct comparison, less so from across a room. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see G488 on one side and H498 on the other.
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.
