Sweeney YellowBenjamin MoorevsThicketBenjamin MooreΔE 21.0 — Distinct difference

Sweeney Yellow and Thicket come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. Hue-wise, Sweeney Yellow belongs to the beige-yellow family and Thicket to the beige-greige family. The 22-point LRV gap — 56 for Sweeney Yellow vs 34 for Thicket — means Sweeney Yellow will open up a space more effectively. Where Sweeney Yellow leans red, Thicket reads yellow — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 21.0 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.
