Clarksville Gray vs Guilford Green

Both are Benjamin Moore colors. Hue-wise, Clarksville Gray belongs to the beige-greige family and Guilford Green to the beige-green family. At LRV 57 vs 40, Guilford Green will read as the brighter of the two — a 18-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. The tonal difference — Clarksville Gray's yellow and red character against Guilford Green's yellow — becomes most visible against white trim or in morning light. At ΔE 13.2, these are genuinely distinct colors — a strong contrast if used together, or a meaningful choice between two different directions.

Digital color is approximate.

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