Pleasant Hill vs Treron
Pleasant Hill (Cloverdale Paint) and Treron (Farrow & Ball) come from different manufacturers. Pleasant Hill reads as green-grey, while Treron reads as greige-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 13-point LRV gap — 25 for Treron vs 12 for Pleasant Hill — means Treron will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 18.0 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.

Pleasant Hill vs Treron in Real Spaces
5 real rooms side by side. Seeing Pleasant Hill and Treron in actual rooms makes the difference concrete; browse the spaces below to get a feel for how each color lives on a wall.
Living Room
A living room wall sees more varied light than almost any other surface in the house, which makes the choice between these two more nuanced than a chip suggests. Treron reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Pleasant Hill.
Bedroom
Bedrooms are typically lit with warmer, lower light than the rest of the house — a condition that flatters warm tones and deepens cool ones. Treron returns significantly more light to the room — in a smaller or darker space, that difference in perceived brightness is hard to miss.
Kitchen
Kitchens often have the harshest, most revealing light in the house — under-cabinet LEDs and overhead fixtures that strip away subtlety. Treron returns significantly more light to the room — in a smaller or darker space, that difference in perceived brightness is hard to miss.
Dining Room
Dining rooms often rely on warm incandescent or candlelight, which flatters warm undertones and mutes cool ones. The LRV gap is large enough that Treron will make the room feel meaningfully brighter than Pleasant Hill would.
Bathroom
Small bathrooms intensify color. A shade that seems quiet in a larger room can feel immersive when you're surrounded by it on four walls. Treron returns significantly more light to the room — in a smaller or darker space, that difference in perceived brightness is hard to miss.

Digital color is approximate.

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