Palm vs Workout Green
Palm (Farrow & Ball) and Workout Green (Sherwin-Williams) come from different manufacturers. These are both greens, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within green to land. The 14-point LRV gap — 72 for Workout Green vs 58 for Palm — means Workout Green will open up a space more effectively. Where Palm leans neutral, Workout Green reads cool — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 11.3 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

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.
