Comet vs Greenbrook

CometBenjamin MoorevsGreenbrookBenjamin MooreΔE 32.6 — Very different colors

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Comet belongs to the blue-grey family and Greenbrook to the beige-green family. Comet (LRV 36) reflects noticeably more light than Greenbrook (LRV 17), a difference of 19 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Comet runs blue while Greenbrook is decidedly yellow, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 32.6, 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.
