Etched Glass vs Spring Break
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. These are both greens, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within green to land. Etched Glass (LRV 56) reflects noticeably more light than Spring Break (LRV 46), a difference of 10 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean green, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. The ΔE 7.0 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Etched Glass on one side and Spring Break on the other.
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.
