Treron vs Vert De Terre
Both from Farrow & Ball's palette. Both sit in the greige-grey family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. Vert De Terre (LRV 46) reflects noticeably more light than Treron (LRV 25), a difference of 22 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean warm, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. With a ΔE of 17.2, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question. Below you'll find 6 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Treron vs Vert De Terre in Real Spaces
6 real rooms side by side. Seeing Treron and Vert De Terre in actual rooms makes the difference concrete; browse the spaces below to get a feel for how each color lives on a wall.
Living Room
In a living room, color works across both daylight and evening light — the same wall can read very differently at noon and at 8pm. The LRV gap is large enough that Vert De Terre will make the room feel meaningfully brighter than Treron would.
Bedroom
The context that matters most in a bedroom is how a color reads under a bedside lamp at night, not under noon daylight. Vert De Terre reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Treron.
Kitchen
In a kitchen, colors are seen under bright task lighting that amplifies undertones — what reads neutral elsewhere can show its hand here. Vert De Terre reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Treron.
Dining Room
A dining room lit by a dimmed pendant or candles is one of the most forgiving environments for paint — warm light softens almost everything. Vert De Terre returns significantly more light to the room — in a smaller or darker space, that difference in perceived brightness is hard to miss.
Front Door
A front door is a focal point — small color differences read clearly at this concentrated scale. The LRV gap is large enough that Vert De Terre will make the room feel meaningfully brighter than Treron would.
Kitchen Cabinets
Kitchen cabinets are constantly compared against adjacent materials, which means subtle differences between these two become much more visible. Vert De Terre reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Treron.

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.
