Pure Essence vs Stonewashed

Pure Essence and Stonewashed come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. These are both greens, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within green to land. The 14-point LRV gap — 80 for Stonewashed vs 66 for Pure Essence — means Stonewashed 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. A ΔE of 10.9 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.
