Aquaverde vs Hazel
Both are Sherwin-Williams colors. Aquaverde reads as blue, while Hazel reads as green — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. With LRVs of 49 and 50, they'll behave almost identically in terms of how much light they reflect back into a room. They share a cool quality — useful to know if you're layering them in the same space. At ΔE 4.0, the difference is perceptible but not dramatic — the two can work harmoniously in the same space. Below you'll find 1 real-room photo comparison where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Aquaverde vs Hazel in Real Spaces
1 real room side by side. Aquaverde and Hazel 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.
Bathroom
Bathrooms amplify color — the enclosed space and reflective surfaces make what reads subtle elsewhere feel more present here. Side by side like this, the difference is easy to read — which is exactly why seeing them in a real space is more useful than comparing chips.

5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Aquaverde on one side and Hazel 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.
