Stonybrook vs Plummet
Stonybrook is a Benjamin Moore color while Plummet comes from Farrow & Ball. These are both greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within grey to land. At LRV 29 vs 27, Stonybrook will read as the brighter of the two — a 3-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. The tonal difference — Stonybrook's green character against Plummet's neutral — becomes most visible against white trim or in morning light. At ΔE 4.1, the difference is perceptible but not dramatic — the two can work harmoniously in the same space. Below you'll find 2 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Stonybrook vs Plummet in Real Spaces
2 real rooms side by side. Stonybrook and Plummet are close enough that the difference can be hard to judge from a chip alone — these photos show how each reads at scale, across different spaces and lighting conditions.
Living Room
Living rooms test a color across a full range of conditions — morning sun, afternoon shade, and evening lamp light all shift how both of these read. At this scale, the choice between them becomes clear in a way that a swatch alone can't communicate.
Bathroom
Bathrooms amplify color — the enclosed space and reflective surfaces make what reads subtle elsewhere feel more present here. Side by side like this, the difference is easy to read — which is exactly why seeing them in a real space is more useful than comparing chips.

5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Stonybrook on one side and Plummet 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.
