Sparrow vs Thicket

SparrowBenjamin MoorevsThicketBenjamin MooreΔE 16.8 — Distinct difference

Sparrow and Thicket come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. Sparrow reads as greige-grey, while Thicket reads as beige-greige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 13-point LRV gap — 34 for Thicket vs 21 for Sparrow — means Thicket will open up a space more effectively. Where Sparrow leans red, Thicket reads yellow — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 16.8 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives. 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. 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.
