Fleeting Green vs Kingston paint color comparison

Fleeting Green vs Kingston

Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Both sit in the green-grey family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. Fleeting Green (LRV 74) reflects noticeably more light than Kingston (LRV 70), a difference of 4 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. At ΔE 2.1, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room. Below you'll find 2 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.

Bedroom

The context that matters most in a bedroom is how a color reads under a bedside lamp at night, not under noon daylight. Fleeting Green reads slightly lighter here — a subtle but real difference in how open the space feels.

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.
