Gratifying Green vs White Mint
Both are Sherwin-Williams colors. Gratifying Green reads as green-yellow, while White Mint reads as green-white — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. At LRV 78 vs 74, White Mint will read as the brighter of the two — a 4-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. They share a neutral quality — useful to know if you're layering them in the same space. At ΔE 4.7, the difference is perceptible but not dramatic — the two can work harmoniously in the same space. Below you'll find 3 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Gratifying Green vs White Mint in Real Spaces
3 real rooms side by side. Gratifying Green and White Mint 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.
Living Room
Living rooms test a color across a full range of conditions — morning sun, afternoon shade, and evening lamp light all shift how both of these read. White Mint has the edge in reflectance, which shows as a quiet sense of added space rather than an obvious contrast.
Bathroom
Bathrooms amplify color — the enclosed space and reflective surfaces make what reads subtle elsewhere feel more present here. The brightness difference is modest but present — White Mint gives the walls a little more lift.
House
At full exterior scale, the difference between these two colors becomes much easier to judge than from a small chip. The brightness difference is modest but present — White Mint gives the walls a little more lift.

Gratifying Green vs White Mint Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Gratifying Green on one side and White Mint 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.
