Palmer Green vs Java
Palmer Green is a Benjamin Moore color while Java comes from Tikkurila. Hue-wise, Palmer Green belongs to the beige-green family and Java to the grey family. At LRV 15 vs 12, Java will read as the brighter of the two — a 3-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. At ΔE 10.5, these are genuinely distinct colors — a strong contrast if used together, or a meaningful choice between two different directions. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Palmer Green on one side and Java on the other.
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.
