Alpine TrailBenjamin MoorevsDark WalnutBenjamin MooreΔE 48.6 — Very different colors

Alpine Trail and Dark Walnut come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. Hue-wise, Alpine Trail belongs to the green family and Dark Walnut to the pink family. The 19-point LRV gap — 29 for Alpine Trail vs 10 for Dark Walnut — means Alpine Trail will open up a space more effectively. Where Alpine Trail leans green, Dark Walnut reads red — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 48.6 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives. 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. 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.
