West Elm also does not have their colors broken down into seasons as Pottery Barn does.Benjamin Moore® Ben® Paint, Newburg Green HC-158    Benjamin Moore® Ben® Paint, Newburg Green HC-158newburg green hc-158Benjamin Moore® Ben® Paint, Chelsea Gray HC-168    Benjamin Moore® Ben® Paint, Chelsea Gray HC-168chelsea gray  hc-168There were only a couple colors they both share: Decorator White, Whitall Brown, Simply White and Chalkboard.Benjamin Moore® Ben® Paint, Davenport Tan HC-76    Benjamin Moore® Ben® Paint, Davenport Tan HC-76davenport tan hc-76Benjamin Moore® Ben® Paint, Brick Red 2084-10     Benjamin Moore® Ben® Paint, Brick Red 2084-10brick red 2084-10The West Elm colors are definitely stronger and more intense than the Pottery Barn colors.Benjamin Moore® Ben® Paint, Cork 2153-40    Benjamin Moore® Ben® Paint, Cork 2153-40cork 2153-40Benjamin Moore® Ben® Paint, Black 2132-10     Benjamin Moore® Ben® Paint, Black 2132-10black 2132-10Benjamin Moore® Ben® Paint, White Dove OC-17        Benjamin Moore® Ben® Paint, White Dove OC-17white dove oc-17If you wanted to purchase the Ben paint colors sold through West Elm's website, they are $35.95 a gallon. At Pottery Barn, Aura paint gallons are sold for $63.99 online.  They both are great paints with low odor and low VOC.
