Coconut vs Pavilion Blue

Where Coconut belongs to Cloverdale Paint's range, Pavilion Blue is a Farrow & Ball color. Coconut reads as yellow, while Pavilion Blue reads as blue-green — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Coconut (LRV 83) reflects noticeably more light than Pavilion Blue (LRV 78), a difference of 5 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. At ΔE 2.9, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room. Below you'll find 2 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.

Coconut vs Pavilion Blue in Real Spaces

2 real rooms side by side. Coconut and Pavilion Blue 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

In a living room, color works across both daylight and evening light — the same wall can read very differently at noon and at 8pm. The brightness difference is modest but present — Coconut gives the walls a little more lift.

Bedroom

The context that matters most in a bedroom is how a color reads under a bedside lamp at night, not under noon daylight. Coconut reads slightly lighter here — a subtle but real difference in how open the space feels.

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.
