Soft GreenBenjamin MoorevsPine NeedleDuluxΔE 65.5Very different colors

Soft Green is a Benjamin Moore color while Pine Needle comes from Dulux. Soft Green reads as blue-green, while Pine Needle reads as green — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. At LRV 82 vs 7, Soft Green will read as the brighter of the two — a 75-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. The tonal difference — Soft Green's green and blue character against Pine Needle's cool — becomes most visible against white trim or in morning light. At ΔE 65.5, 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.

Digital color is approximate.

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