Seaglass vs Bay Green
Where Seaglass belongs to Behr's range, Bay Green is a Cloverdale Paint color. These are both greens, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within green to land. Bay Green (LRV 80) reflects noticeably more light than Seaglass (LRV 73), a difference of 7 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. At ΔE 2.7, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room. Below you'll find 4 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Seaglass vs Bay Green in Real Spaces
4 real rooms side by side. Seaglass and Bay Green 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
In a living room, color works across both daylight and evening light — the same wall can read very differently at noon and at 8pm. The brightness difference is modest but present — Bay Green gives the walls a little more lift.
Bedroom
The context that matters most in a bedroom is how a color reads under a bedside lamp at night, not under noon daylight. Bay Green reads slightly lighter here — a subtle but real difference in how open the space feels.
Kitchen
In a kitchen, colors are seen under bright task lighting that amplifies undertones — what reads neutral elsewhere can show its hand here. Bay Green reads slightly lighter here — a subtle but real difference in how open the space feels.

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