Pleasant Valley vs Turquoise Mist paint color comparison

Pleasant Valley vs Turquoise Mist

Pleasant Valley and Turquoise Mist come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. These are both green-greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within green-grey to land. The 10-point LRV gap — 60 for Turquoise Mist vs 50 for Pleasant Valley — means Turquoise Mist will open up a space more effectively. Both share a green character, which means they'll respond to light and surrounding materials in similar ways. ΔE 5.9 means they're clearly different, but not dramatically so — they'd pair well in the same room. 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.

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