Alpine Trail vs Carbon Copy

Alpine TrailBehrvsCarbon CopyBehrΔE 5.7 — Noticeable difference

Alpine Trail and Carbon Copy come from the same Behr collection. Alpine Trail reads as green-grey, while Carbon Copy reads as grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Their light reflectance values are nearly the same — 10 vs 9 — so neither will read significantly brighter or darker than the other. Both share a green character, which means they'll respond to light and surrounding materials in similar ways. ΔE 5.7 means they're clearly different, but not dramatically so — they'd pair well in the same room. Below you'll find 1 real-room photo comparison where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.

Alpine Trail vs Carbon Copy in Real Spaces

1 real room side by side. Alpine Trail and Carbon Copy are close enough that the difference can be hard to judge from a chip alone — these photos show how each reads at scale, across different spaces and lighting conditions.

Living Room

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.
