Horizon vs Just Walnut

HorizonBenjamin MoorevsJust WalnutDuluxΔE 3.5Noticeable difference

Horizon is a Benjamin Moore color while Just Walnut comes from Dulux. Horizon reads as green-grey, while Just Walnut reads as beige-greige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. With LRVs of 73 and 72, they'll behave almost identically in terms of how much light they reflect back into a room. The tonal difference — Horizon's green character against Just Walnut's warm — becomes most visible against white trim or in morning light. At ΔE 3.5, the difference is perceptible but not dramatic — the two can work harmoniously in the same space. Below you'll find 3 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.

Horizon vs Just Walnut in Real Spaces

3 real rooms side by side. Horizon and Just Walnut 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

Living rooms test a color across a full range of conditions — morning sun, afternoon shade, and evening lamp light all shift how both of these read. At this scale, the choice between them becomes clear in a way that a swatch alone can't communicate.

Bedroom

Bedroom walls are often seen under warm artificial light, a context that shifts both colors from how they look on a chip. Side by side like this, the difference is easy to read — which is exactly why seeing them in a real space is more useful than comparing chips.

Bathroom

Bathrooms amplify color — the enclosed space and reflective surfaces make what reads subtle elsewhere feel more present here. Side by side like this, the difference is easy to read — which is exactly why seeing them in a real space is more useful than comparing chips.

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.
