Grecian Green vs Lush Meadow
Grecian Green (Benjamin Moore) and Lush Meadow (Cloverdale Paint) come from different manufacturers. These are both green-yellows, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within green-yellow to land. The 4-point LRV gap — 58 for Lush Meadow vs 54 for Grecian Green — means Lush Meadow will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 0.9 puts them in subtle territory — distinguishable in direct comparison, less so from across a room. Below you'll find 3 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Grecian Green vs Lush Meadow in Real Spaces
3 real rooms side by side. Grecian Green and Lush Meadow are close enough that the difference can be hard to judge from a chip alone — these photos show how each reads at scale, across different spaces and lighting conditions.
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. Lush Meadow reads slightly lighter here — a subtle but real difference in how open the space feels.
Bedroom
Bedrooms are typically lit with warmer, lower light than the rest of the house — a condition that flatters warm tones and deepens cool ones. Lush Meadow has the edge in reflectance, which shows as a quiet sense of added space rather than an obvious contrast.
Kitchen
Kitchens often have the harshest, most revealing light in the house — under-cabinet LEDs and overhead fixtures that strip away subtlety. Lush Meadow has the edge in reflectance, which shows as a quiet sense of added space rather than an obvious contrast.

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.
