Evening Shade vs Scree

Evening Shade is a Cloverdale Paint color while Scree comes from Little Greene. These are both greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within grey to land. With LRVs of 11 and 10, they'll behave almost identically in terms of how much light they reflect back into a room. With a ΔE of 1.4, the difference is subtle — you'd need them side by side to reliably tell them apart. Below you'll find 4 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.

Evening Shade vs Scree in Real Spaces

4 real rooms side by side. Evening Shade and Scree 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

Bathroom

Bathrooms amplify color — the enclosed space and reflective surfaces make what reads subtle elsewhere feel more present here. The two are close enough that the choice comes down to finer qualities — undertone, texture, what the color sits next to.

Digital color is approximate.

Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
