Clearspring Green vs White Dove

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Clearspring Green reads as green, while White Dove reads as beige-greige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. White Dove (LRV 83) reflects noticeably more light than Clearspring Green (LRV 29), a difference of 54 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Clearspring Green runs green while White Dove is decidedly yellow, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 38.1, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question. Below you'll find 2 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
