Hazy Blue vs Treron
Where Hazy Blue belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Treron is a Farrow & Ball color. Hazy Blue reads as blue, while Treron reads as greige-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Hazy Blue (LRV 50) reflects noticeably more light than Treron (LRV 25), a difference of 25 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Hazy Blue runs green and blue while Treron is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 27.0, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question. Below you'll find 2 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Hazy Blue vs Treron in Real Spaces
2 real rooms side by side. Seeing Hazy Blue 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.
Kitchen
In a kitchen, colors are seen under bright task lighting that amplifies undertones — what reads neutral elsewhere can show its hand here. Hazy Blue reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Treron.
Dining Room
A dining room lit by a dimmed pendant or candles is one of the most forgiving environments for paint — warm light softens almost everything. Hazy Blue returns significantly more light to the room — in a smaller or darker space, that difference in perceived brightness is hard to miss.
