Mermaid Sea vs Juniper Green

Mermaid SeaBehrvsJuniper GreenBenjamin MooreΔE 6.0Noticeable difference

Where Mermaid Sea belongs to Behr's range, Juniper Green is a Benjamin Moore color. Mermaid Sea reads as blue, while Juniper Green reads as blue-green — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Juniper Green (LRV 22) reflects noticeably more light than Mermaid Sea (LRV 13), a difference of 9 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Mermaid Sea runs green and blue while Juniper Green is decidedly green, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 6.0 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

Digital color is approximate.

Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
