Little Greene → BS 4800 conversion chart

This chart lists all 204 Little Greene colours with their nearest BS 4800 equivalent, ranked by colour distance (ΔE, CIEDE2000 — lower is closer). 120 of 204 have an equivalent within ΔE 5, which is close enough that the difference is hard to spot once paint’s on the wall. Where the nearest BS 4800 colour is ΔE 8 or more there is no close equivalent — the nearest is still shown for reference, clearly labelled. Standard-system hex values are widely-cited sRGB approximations; physical reference chips remain authoritative for colour-critical work.
