Frayed Hessian 2 vs Treron
Frayed Hessian 2 (Dulux) and Treron (Farrow & Ball) come from different manufacturers. Hue-wise, Frayed Hessian 2 belongs to the beige family and Treron to the greige-grey family. The 50-point LRV gap — 75 for Frayed Hessian 2 vs 25 for Treron — means Frayed Hessian 2 will open up a space more effectively. Both share a warm character, which means they'll respond to light and surrounding materials in similar ways. A ΔE of 32.3 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives. Below you'll find 1 real-room photo comparison where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Frayed Hessian 2 vs Treron in Real Spaces

Frayed Hessian 2 vs Treron Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Frayed Hessian 2 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.
