Forest Floor vs Eclipse
Forest Floor is a Benjamin Moore color while Eclipse comes from Sherwin-Williams. Forest Floor reads as grey, while Eclipse reads as greige-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. With LRVs of 14 and 14, they'll behave almost identically in terms of how much light they reflect back into a room. The tonal difference — Forest Floor's yellow character against Eclipse's warm — becomes most visible against white trim or in morning light. At ΔE 3.7, the difference is perceptible but not dramatic — the two can work harmoniously in the same space. Below you'll find 1 real-room photo comparison where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Forest Floor vs Eclipse in Real Spaces
1 real room side by side. Forest Floor and Eclipse 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.
Bathroom
Bathrooms amplify color — the enclosed space and reflective surfaces make what reads subtle elsewhere feel more present here. Side by side like this, the difference is easy to read — which is exactly why seeing them in a real space is more useful than comparing chips.

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.
