Leprechaun vs St. Patrick

LeprechaunBenjamin MoorevsSt. PatrickBenjamin MooreΔE 11.0 — Distinct difference

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Leprechaun belongs to the blue-green family and St. Patrick to the blue family. St. Patrick (LRV 27) reflects noticeably more light than Leprechaun (LRV 16), a difference of 10 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Leprechaun runs green while St. Patrick is decidedly green and blue, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 11.0, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

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.
