Minster GreenFarrow & BallvsTreronFarrow & BallΔE 16.5Distinct difference

Both are Farrow & Ball colors. Hue-wise, Minster Green belongs to the green-grey family and Treron to the greige-grey family. At LRV 25 vs 12, Treron will read as the brighter of the two — a 13-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. The tonal difference — Minster Green's neutral character against Treron's warm — becomes most visible against white trim or in morning light. At ΔE 16.5, these are genuinely distinct colors — a strong contrast if used together, or a meaningful choice between two different directions.

Bathrooms amplify color — the enclosed space and reflective surfaces make what reads subtle elsewhere feel more present here. The LRV gap is large enough that Treron will make the room feel meaningfully brighter than Minster Green would.

Digital color is approximate.
