Apple vs Evergreen Fog

AppleLittle GreenevsEvergreen FogSherwin-WilliamsΔE 31.1Very different colors

Apple is a Little Greene color while Evergreen Fog comes from Sherwin-Williams. Apple reads as beige-yellow, while Evergreen Fog reads as green-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. At LRV 55 vs 30, Apple will read as the brighter of the two — a 24-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. The tonal difference — Apple's yellow character against Evergreen Fog's neutral — becomes most visible against white trim or in morning light. At ΔE 31.1, these are genuinely distinct colors — a strong contrast if used together, or a meaningful choice between two different directions. Below you'll find 2 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
