Garden Green vs Starboard
Garden Green is a Benjamin Moore color while Starboard comes from Sherwin-Williams. These are both blue-greens, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within blue-green to land. At LRV 15 vs 11, Garden Green will read as the brighter of the two — a 4-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. The tonal difference — Garden Green's green and blue character against Starboard's cool — becomes most visible against white trim or in morning light. At ΔE 6.9, the difference is perceptible but not dramatic — the two can work harmoniously in the same space.
