Boreal Forest vs Palace Green
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. These are both green-greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within green-grey to land. Palace Green (LRV 25) reflects noticeably more light than Boreal Forest (LRV 12), a difference of 13 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean green, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. With a ΔE of 18.6, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question. 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.
