Imagine vs Tender Green
Both from Jotun's palette. Both sit in the green-grey family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. Tender Green (LRV 51) reflects noticeably more light than Imagine (LRV 49), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Imagine runs cool while Tender Green is decidedly neutral, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 4.5 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice. Below you'll find 1 real-room photo comparison where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Imagine vs Tender Green in Real Spaces
1 real room side by side. Imagine and Tender Green 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
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 temperature contrast between Tender Green and Imagine is what sets these apart most in this context.

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.
