Clean Green vs Iron Ore
Clean Green and Iron Ore come from the same Sherwin-Williams collection. Clean Green reads as green, while Iron Ore reads as grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 55-point LRV gap — 61 for Clean Green vs 6 for Iron Ore — means Clean Green will open up a space more effectively. Where Clean Green leans cool, Iron Ore reads neutral — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 61.7 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.

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.
