Garden Stone vs Guilford Green

Both are Benjamin Moore colors. Hue-wise, Garden Stone belongs to the beige-yellow family and Guilford Green to the beige-green family. At LRV 57 vs 49, Guilford Green will read as the brighter of the two — a 8-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. They share a yellow quality — useful to know if you're layering them in the same space. At ΔE 8.9, the difference is perceptible but not dramatic — the two can work harmoniously in the same space.

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.
