Shoreline vs Evergreen Fog
Shoreline (Benjamin Moore) and Evergreen Fog (Sherwin-Williams) come from different manufacturers. Hue-wise, Shoreline belongs to the grey family and Evergreen Fog to the green-grey family. The 37-point LRV gap — 68 for Shoreline vs 30 for Evergreen Fog — means Shoreline will open up a space more effectively. Where Shoreline leans yellow, Evergreen Fog reads neutral — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 24.8 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives. Below you'll find 3 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Shoreline vs Evergreen Fog in Real Spaces
3 real rooms side by side. Seeing Shoreline and Evergreen Fog in actual rooms makes the difference concrete; browse the spaces below to get a feel for how each color lives on a wall.
Living Room
A living room wall sees more varied light than almost any other surface in the house, which makes the choice between these two more nuanced than a chip suggests. Shoreline reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Evergreen Fog.
Kitchen
Kitchens often have the harshest, most revealing light in the house — under-cabinet LEDs and overhead fixtures that strip away subtlety. Shoreline returns significantly more light to the room — in a smaller or darker space, that difference in perceived brightness is hard to miss.
Bathroom
Small bathrooms intensify color. A shade that seems quiet in a larger room can feel immersive when you're surrounded by it on four walls. Shoreline returns significantly more light to the room — in a smaller or darker space, that difference in perceived brightness is hard to miss.

Shoreline vs Evergreen Fog Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Shoreline on one side and Evergreen Fog 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.
