Broccoflower vs Pediment
Broccoflower and Pediment come from the same Sherwin-Williams collection. Hue-wise, Broccoflower belongs to the green-yellow family and Pediment to the greige-grey family. The 28-point LRV gap — 61 for Pediment vs 33 for Broccoflower — means Pediment will open up a space more effectively. Where Broccoflower leans neutral, Pediment reads warm — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 28.5 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives. Below you'll find 2 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Broccoflower vs Pediment in Real Spaces
2 real rooms side by side. Seeing Broccoflower and Pediment in actual rooms makes the difference concrete; browse the spaces below to get a feel for how each color lives on a wall.
Bedroom
Bedrooms are typically lit with warmer, lower light than the rest of the house — a condition that flatters warm tones and deepens cool ones. Pediment returns significantly more light to the room — in a smaller or darker space, that difference in perceived brightness is hard to miss.
Dining Room
Dining rooms often rely on warm incandescent or candlelight, which flatters warm undertones and mutes cool ones. The LRV gap is large enough that Pediment will make the room feel meaningfully brighter than Broccoflower would.

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