Teak vs Obsidian Green
Teak (Benjamin Moore) and Obsidian Green (Little Greene) come from different manufacturers. Teak reads as beige, while Obsidian Green reads as green — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Their light reflectance values are nearly the same — 0 vs 1 — so neither will read significantly brighter or darker than the other. Where Teak leans warm, Obsidian Green reads green — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 67.1 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.

Teak vs Obsidian Green Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Teak on one side and Obsidian Green 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.
