Downtown vs Treron

DowntownBenjamin MoorevsTreronFarrow & BallΔE 7.6Noticeable difference

Downtown (Benjamin Moore) and Treron (Farrow & Ball) come from different manufacturers. Both sit in the greige-grey family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. The 8-point LRV gap — 33 for Downtown vs 25 for Treron — means Downtown will open up a space more effectively. Where Downtown leans red, Treron reads warm — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. ΔE 7.6 means they're clearly different, but not dramatically so — they'd pair well in the same room. 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.
