Warm Grey vs Treron
Where Warm Grey belongs to Cloverdale Paint's range, Treron is a Farrow & Ball color. Warm Grey reads as beige-grey, while Treron reads as greige-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Warm Grey (LRV 65) reflects noticeably more light than Treron (LRV 25), a difference of 40 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. With a ΔE of 27.9, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question. Below you'll find 5 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Warm Grey vs Treron in Real Spaces
5 real rooms side by side. Seeing Warm Grey 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
In a living room, color works across both daylight and evening light — the same wall can read very differently at noon and at 8pm. The LRV gap is large enough that Warm Grey will make the room feel meaningfully brighter than Treron would.
Bedroom
The context that matters most in a bedroom is how a color reads under a bedside lamp at night, not under noon daylight. Warm Grey reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Treron.
Kitchen
In a kitchen, colors are seen under bright task lighting that amplifies undertones — what reads neutral elsewhere can show its hand here. Warm Grey reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Treron.
Dining Room
A dining room lit by a dimmed pendant or candles is one of the most forgiving environments for paint — warm light softens almost everything. Warm Grey returns significantly more light to the room — in a smaller or darker space, that difference in perceived brightness is hard to miss.

Warm Grey vs Treron Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Warm Grey 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.
