Sacred Spring vs Treron

Sacred SpringCloverdale PaintvsTreronFarrow & BallΔE 27.5Very different colors

Sacred Spring (Cloverdale Paint) and Treron (Farrow & Ball) come from different manufacturers. Hue-wise, Sacred Spring belongs to the grey-red family and Treron to the greige-grey family. The 35-point LRV gap — 60 for Sacred Spring vs 25 for Treron — means Sacred Spring will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 27.5 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives. Below you'll find 5 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.

Sacred Spring vs Treron in Real Spaces

5 real rooms side by side. Seeing Sacred Spring 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. Sacred Spring reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Treron.

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. Sacred Spring 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. Sacred Spring 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 Sacred Spring will make the room feel meaningfully brighter than Treron 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. Sacred Spring returns significantly more light to the room — in a smaller or darker space, that difference in perceived brightness is hard to miss.
