New Retro vs Pine Sprigs

New RetroBenjamin MoorevsPine SprigsBenjamin MooreΔE 4.1 — Noticeable difference

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. These are both greens, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within green to land. New Retro (LRV 77) reflects noticeably more light than Pine Sprigs (LRV 72), a difference of 4 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean green, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. The ΔE 4.1 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice. 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.
