Spring Leaf vs Phthalo Green
Spring Leaf (Benjamin Moore) and Phthalo Green (Little Greene) come from different manufacturers. These are both greens, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within green to land. The 9-point LRV gap — 55 for Spring Leaf vs 46 for Phthalo Green — means Spring Leaf 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 18.1 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.
