Early Spring Green vs Pigeon
Early Spring Green (Benjamin Moore) and Pigeon (Farrow & Ball) come from different manufacturers. Hue-wise, Early Spring Green belongs to the green family and Pigeon to the grey family. The 17-point LRV gap — 68 for Early Spring Green vs 51 for Pigeon — means Early Spring Green will open up a space more effectively. Where Early Spring Green leans green, Pigeon reads neutral — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 35.1 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives. 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.
