Absolute Green vs Silver Marlin
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Absolute Green belongs to the blue-green family and Silver Marlin to the green-grey family. Silver Marlin (LRV 56) reflects noticeably more light than Absolute Green (LRV 7), a difference of 49 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Absolute Green runs green and blue while Silver Marlin is decidedly green, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 53.9, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.

Digital color is approximate.
