Douglas Fir vs Outrageous Green
Where Douglas Fir belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Outrageous Green is a Sherwin-Williams color. Douglas Fir reads as yellow, while Outrageous Green reads as green-yellow — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Outrageous Green (LRV 40) reflects noticeably more light than Douglas Fir (LRV 32), a difference of 8 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Douglas Fir runs green while Outrageous Green is decidedly neutral, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 6.2 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
