Seascape vs Duck Green
Seascape (Cloverdale Paint) and Duck Green (Farrow & Ball) come from different manufacturers. These are both green-greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within green-grey to land. The 32-point LRV gap — 40 for Seascape vs 8 for Duck Green — means Seascape will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 34.8 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.
Seascape vs Duck Green in Real Spaces
5 real rooms side by side. Seeing Seascape and Duck Green 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. Seascape reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Duck Green.
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. Seascape 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. Seascape 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 Seascape will make the room feel meaningfully brighter than Duck Green 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. Seascape returns significantly more light to the room — in a smaller or darker space, that difference in perceived brightness is hard to miss.

Seascape vs Duck Green Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Seascape on one side and Duck Green 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.
