Tranquil Dawn vs Imagine
Tranquil Dawn (Dulux) and Imagine (Jotun) come from different manufacturers. Both sit in the green-grey family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. The 6-point LRV gap — 55 for Tranquil Dawn vs 49 for Imagine — means Tranquil Dawn will open up a space more effectively. Where Tranquil Dawn leans neutral, Imagine reads cool — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. ΔE 5.2 means they're clearly different, but not dramatically so — they'd pair well in the same room. Below you'll find 2 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Tranquil Dawn vs Imagine in Real Spaces
2 real rooms side by side. Tranquil Dawn and Imagine 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. Tranquil Dawn reads slightly lighter here — a subtle but real difference in how open the space feels.
Kitchen Cabinets
Cabinet color is always seen in context — against countertops, backsplash, and hardware — which amplifies undertone differences that might disappear on a plain wall. Tranquil Dawn has the edge in reflectance, which shows as a quiet sense of added space rather than an obvious contrast.

Tranquil Dawn vs Imagine Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Tranquil Dawn on one side and Imagine 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.
