Amethyst Sky vs Black Forest Green
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Amethyst Sky belongs to the grey family and Black Forest Green to the blue-green family. Amethyst Sky (LRV 32) reflects noticeably more light than Black Forest Green (LRV 5), a difference of 27 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Amethyst Sky runs red while Black Forest Green is decidedly green and blue, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 46.2, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
