True Green vs Duck Green
True Green (Benjamin Moore) and Duck Green (Farrow & Ball) come from different manufacturers. Hue-wise, True Green belongs to the blue-green family and Duck Green to the green-grey family. Their light reflectance values are nearly the same — 9 vs 8 — so neither will read significantly brighter or darker than the other. Where True Green leans green, Duck Green reads neutral — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 20.2 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.

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