The difference

Read from the numbers

Both read neutral. Both belong to the green family.

How they read

In their own words

Creekside Green is a mid-dark grey with hazy green tones — Benjamin Moore's own description calls it 'moody' and 'enigmatic', and that is right. It is neither a clear green nor a flat grey but the colour of lichen on a shaded stone.

Calke Green takes its name from the breakfast room at Calke Abbey in Derbyshire, and it has the settled, slightly faded quality of a color that has been on a wall for two hundred years. It is a mid-tone green with enough grey to stay calm and enough yellow to stay warm — the green of gardens rather than forests.
