GraystoneBenjamin MoorevsWindmill LaneLittle GreeneΔE 8.1Noticeable difference

Graystone (Benjamin Moore) and Windmill Lane (Little Greene) come from different manufacturers. Hue-wise, Graystone belongs to the grey family and Windmill Lane to the green-grey family. Their light reflectance values are nearly the same — 31 vs 31 — so neither will read significantly brighter or darker than 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.
