Constellation vs Green Earth
Constellation and Green Earth come from the same Sherwin-Williams collection. Hue-wise, Constellation belongs to the greige-grey family and Green Earth to the green-greige family. The 29-point LRV gap — 60 for Constellation vs 31 for Green Earth — means Constellation will open up a space more effectively. Both share a warm character, which means they'll respond to light and surrounding materials in similar ways. A ΔE of 20.6 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.
Constellation vs Green Earth in Real Spaces
2 real rooms side by side. Seeing Constellation and Green Earth 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
A living room wall sees more varied light than almost any other surface in the house, which makes the choice between these two more nuanced than a chip suggests. Constellation reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Green Earth.
House
A full exterior is the most demanding test for a paint color — scale and outdoor light both amplify differences that seem small on a swatch. Constellation returns significantly more light to the room — in a smaller or darker space, that difference in perceived brightness is hard to miss.

5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Constellation on one side and Green Earth 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.
