Greyhound vs Warm Onyx

GreyhoundBehrvsWarm OnyxBehrΔE 21.4Distinct difference

Greyhound and Warm Onyx come from the same Behr collection. Both sit in the grey family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. The 14-point LRV gap — 21 for Greyhound vs 7 for Warm Onyx — means Greyhound will open up a space more effectively. Both share a red character, which means they'll respond to light and surrounding materials in similar ways. A ΔE of 21.4 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives. Below you'll find 1 real-room photo comparison where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.

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.
