Powder vs Treron
Powder is a Cloverdale Paint color while Treron comes from Farrow & Ball. Hue-wise, Powder belongs to the green-white family and Treron to the greige-grey family. At LRV 85 vs 25, Powder will read as the brighter of the two — a 60-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. At ΔE 37.6, these are genuinely distinct colors — a strong contrast if used together, or a meaningful choice between two different directions. Below you'll find 5 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Powder vs Treron in Real Spaces
5 real rooms side by side. Seeing Powder 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
Living rooms test a color across a full range of conditions — morning sun, afternoon shade, and evening lamp light all shift how both of these read. Powder returns significantly more light to the room — in a smaller or darker space, that difference in perceived brightness is hard to miss.
Bedroom
Bedroom walls are often seen under warm artificial light, a context that shifts both colors from how they look on a chip. The LRV gap is large enough that Powder will make the room feel meaningfully brighter than Treron would.
Kitchen
Kitchen lighting tends to be bright and directional, which sharpens contrast and makes undertone differences more apparent. The LRV gap is large enough that Powder will make the room feel meaningfully brighter than Treron would.
Dining Room
Dining room light is typically the warmest in the house, which shifts both colors toward the red end of the spectrum compared to daylight. Powder reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Treron.

5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Powder on one side and Treron 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.
