Eddy vs Palm
Both are Farrow & Ball colors. Hue-wise, Eddy belongs to the yellow family and Palm to the green family. With LRVs of 59 and 58, they'll behave almost identically in terms of how much light they reflect back into a room. The tonal difference — Eddy's warm character against Palm's neutral — becomes most visible against white trim or in morning light. At ΔE 3.9, 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.

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.
