The PlazaDuluxvsTreronFarrow & BallΔE 31.2Very different colors

The Plaza is a Dulux color while Treron comes from Farrow & Ball. The Plaza reads as grey, while Treron reads as greige-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. At LRV 72 vs 25, The Plaza will read as the brighter of the two — a 47-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. The tonal difference — The Plaza's neutral character against Treron's warm — becomes most visible against white trim or in morning light. At ΔE 31.2, these are genuinely distinct colors — a strong contrast if used together, or a meaningful choice between two different directions. Below you'll find 1 real-room photo comparison where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.

Digital color is approximate.

Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
