Agate Green vs Euphoric Lilac
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Agate Green reads as green-grey, while Euphoric Lilac reads as pink-purple — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Euphoric Lilac (LRV 61) reflects noticeably more light than Agate Green (LRV 34), a difference of 27 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean cool, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. With a ΔE of 35.4, 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.
Agate Green vs Euphoric Lilac in Real Spaces
3 real rooms side by side. Seeing Agate Green and Euphoric Lilac 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 Euphoric Lilac will make the room feel meaningfully brighter than Agate Green would.
House
Seen across an entire facade, subtle tonal differences become pronounced. What reads as nearly the same on a chip often reads as clearly different at scale. Euphoric Lilac reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Agate Green.
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 Euphoric Lilac will make the room feel meaningfully brighter than Agate Green would.

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.
