Agave vs Echo Park
Both from Behr's palette. Agave reads as blue-grey, while Echo Park reads as blue-green — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Agave (LRV 31) reflects noticeably more light than Echo Park (LRV 22), a difference of 8 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Agave runs green and blue while Echo Park is decidedly green, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 8.0 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.

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.
