Olympus GreenBenjamin MoorevsHague BlueFarrow & BallΔE 6.5Noticeable difference

Where Olympus Green belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Hague Blue is a Farrow & Ball color. Olympus Green reads as blue-green, while Hague Blue reads as blue — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. They have nearly identical light reflectance values (9 vs 7), so they'll read as similarly Dark in most lighting conditions. Olympus Green runs blue while Hague Blue is decidedly cool, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 6.5 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice. Below you'll find 2 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.

Olympus Green vs Hague Blue in Real Spaces

2 real rooms side by side. Olympus Green and Hague Blue 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

In a living room, color works across both daylight and evening light — the same wall can read very differently at noon and at 8pm. 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.

Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
