Chard vs Pale Green
Chard (Behr) and Pale Green (RAL Classic) come from different manufacturers. These are both greens, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within green to land. The 23-point LRV gap — 31 for Pale Green vs 8 for Chard — means Pale Green will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 29.9 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.

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.
