Green Parakeet vs Imagine
Green Parakeet (Behr) and Imagine (Jotun) come from different manufacturers. Hue-wise, Green Parakeet belongs to the blue-green family and Imagine to the green-grey family. Their light reflectance values are nearly the same — 48 vs 49 — so neither will read significantly brighter or darker than the other. Where Green Parakeet leans green, Imagine reads cool — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 24.1 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives. Below you'll find 2 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Green Parakeet vs Imagine in Real Spaces
2 real rooms side by side. Seeing Green Parakeet and Imagine in actual rooms makes the difference concrete; browse the spaces below to get a feel for how each color lives on a wall.
Living Room
A living room wall sees more varied light than almost any other surface in the house, which makes the choice between these two more nuanced than a chip suggests. The distinction reads clearly at room scale, making the choice between them concrete.
Kitchen Cabinets
Cabinet color is always seen in context — against countertops, backsplash, and hardware — which amplifies undertone differences that might disappear on a plain wall. At this scale, the choice between them becomes clear in a way that a swatch alone can't communicate.

Green Parakeet vs Imagine Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Green Parakeet on one side and Imagine 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.
