Aqueous vs May green
Aqueous (Cloverdale Paint) and May green (RAL Classic) come from different manufacturers. Both sit in the green family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. The 10-point LRV gap — 30 for Aqueous vs 20 for May green — means Aqueous will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 12.2 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.

Aqueous vs May green Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Aqueous on one side and May 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.
