Graceful Green (Dulux) and Agreeable Gray (Sherwin-Williams) come from different manufacturers. Hue-wise, Graceful Green belongs to the green-grey family and Agreeable Gray to the greige-grey family. The 10-point LRV gap — 70 for Graceful Green vs 60 for Agreeable Gray — means Graceful Green will open up a space more effectively. Where Graceful Green leans neutral, Agreeable Gray reads warm — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. ΔE 6.2 means they're clearly different, but not dramatically so — they'd pair well in the same room. Below you'll find 3 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Graceful Green vs Agreeable Gray in Real Spaces
3 real rooms side by side. Graceful Green and Agreeable Gray are close enough that the difference can be hard to judge from a chip alone — these photos show how each reads at scale, across different spaces and lighting conditions.
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. Graceful Green reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Agreeable Gray.
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. Graceful Green 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. Graceful Green returns significantly more light to the room — in a smaller or darker space, that difference in perceived brightness is hard to miss.

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