Fog Mist vs Treron
Fog Mist (Benjamin Moore) and Treron (Farrow & Ball) come from different manufacturers. Fog Mist reads as beige-greige, while Treron reads as greige-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 45-point LRV gap — 70 for Fog Mist vs 25 for Treron — means Fog Mist will open up a space more effectively. Where Fog Mist leans red, Treron reads warm — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 31.4 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives. Below you'll find 2 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Fog Mist vs Treron in Real Spaces
2 real rooms side by side. Seeing Fog Mist and Treron in actual rooms makes the difference concrete; browse the spaces below to get a feel for how each color lives on a wall.
Living Room
A living room wall sees more varied light than almost any other surface in the house, which makes the choice between these two more nuanced than a chip suggests. Fog Mist reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Treron.
Kitchen
Kitchens often have the harshest, most revealing light in the house — under-cabinet LEDs and overhead fixtures that strip away subtlety. Fog Mist returns significantly more light to the room — in a smaller or darker space, that difference in perceived brightness is hard to miss.

Fog Mist vs Treron Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Fog Mist on one side and Treron 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.
