Minty Green vs Duck Green

Minty GreenBenjamin MoorevsDuck GreenFarrow & BallΔE 60.0Very different colors

Minty Green (Benjamin Moore) and Duck Green (Farrow & Ball) come from different manufacturers. Hue-wise, Minty Green belongs to the blue-green family and Duck Green to the green-grey family. The 75-point LRV gap — 83 for Minty Green vs 8 for Duck Green — means Minty Green will open up a space more effectively. Where Minty Green leans green, Duck Green reads neutral — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 60.0 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives. 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.
