Discrete vs Tea with Florence
Where Discrete belongs to Jotun's range, Tea with Florence is a Little Greene color. Discrete reads as grey, while Tea with Florence reads as blue — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Discrete (LRV 24) reflects noticeably more light than Tea with Florence (LRV 18), a difference of 6 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Discrete runs neutral while Tea with Florence is decidedly blue, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 16.6, 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 3 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.

3 real rooms side by side. Seeing Discrete and Tea with Florence 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 brightness difference is modest but present — Discrete gives the walls a little more lift.
Bedroom
The context that matters most in a bedroom is how a color reads under a bedside lamp at night, not under noon daylight. Discrete reads slightly lighter here — a subtle but real difference in how open the space feels.
Bathroom
Bathrooms are one of the few spaces where you're genuinely enclosed by the paint color, which makes the choice between these two more consequential. Discrete reads slightly lighter here — a subtle but real difference in how open the space feels.

Discrete vs Tea with Florence Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Discrete on one side and Tea with Florence 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.
