Avon Green vs Treron

Avon GreenBenjamin MoorevsTreronFarrow & BallΔE 7.7Noticeable difference

Avon Green is a Benjamin Moore color while Treron comes from Farrow & Ball. Avon Green reads as green-grey, while Treron reads as greige-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. At LRV 25 vs 21, Treron will read as the brighter of the two — a 4-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. The tonal difference — Avon Green's green character against Treron's warm — becomes most visible against white trim or in morning light. At ΔE 7.7, the difference is perceptible but not dramatic — the two can work harmoniously in the same space. Below you'll find 3 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.

Avon Green vs Treron in Real Spaces

3 real rooms side by side. Avon Green and Treron 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

Living rooms test a color across a full range of conditions — morning sun, afternoon shade, and evening lamp light all shift how both of these read. Treron has the edge in reflectance, which shows as a quiet sense of added space rather than an obvious contrast.

House

At full exterior scale, the difference between these two colors becomes much easier to judge than from a small chip. The brightness difference is modest but present — Treron gives the walls a little more lift.

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.
