Peaceful BlueBehrvsWatermelon PunchBehrΔE NaNVery different colors

Both from Behr's palette. Hue-wise, Peaceful Blue belongs to the blue family and Watermelon Punch to the pink-red family. Peaceful Blue (LRV 44) reflects noticeably more light than Watermelon Punch (LRV 36), a difference of 8 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Peaceful Blue runs blue while Watermelon Punch is decidedly red, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of NaN, the contrast is hard to miss.

Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
