Hopper vs Greenbelt

HopperLittle GreenevsGreenbeltSherwin-WilliamsΔE 24.5Distinct difference

Where Hopper belongs to Little Greene's range, Greenbelt is a Sherwin-Williams color. These are both greens, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within green to land. They have nearly identical light reflectance values (14 vs 12), so they'll read as similarly Dark in most lighting conditions. Hopper runs green while Greenbelt is decidedly cool, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 24.5, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

Digital color is approximate.

Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
