Dark Linen vs Treron

Dark LinenBenjamin MoorevsTreronFarrow & BallΔE 35.9Very different colors

Dark Linen is a Benjamin Moore color while Treron comes from Farrow & Ball. Dark Linen reads as beige-yellow, while Treron reads as greige-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. At LRV 80 vs 25, Dark Linen will read as the brighter of the two — a 55-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. The tonal difference — Dark Linen's yellow character against Treron's warm — becomes most visible against white trim or in morning light. At ΔE 35.9, these are genuinely distinct colors — a strong contrast if used together, or a meaningful choice between two different directions. 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.

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