Apple White vs Treron
Where Apple White belongs to Dulux's range, Treron is a Farrow & Ball color. Apple White reads as beige-white, while Treron reads as greige-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Apple White (LRV 83) reflects noticeably more light than Treron (LRV 25), a difference of 58 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean warm, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. With a ΔE of 35.2, 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 4 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Apple White vs Treron in Real Spaces
4 real rooms side by side. Seeing Apple White 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 Apple White 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. Apple White 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. Apple White reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Treron.
House
Seen across an entire facade, subtle tonal differences become pronounced. What reads as nearly the same on a chip often reads as clearly different at scale. Apple White reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Treron.
