Appalachian Brown vs Morning Glory
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Appalachian Brown reads as beige-pink, while Morning Glory reads as blue — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Morning Glory (LRV 68) reflects noticeably more light than Appalachian Brown (LRV 6), a difference of 62 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Appalachian Brown runs red while Morning Glory is decidedly blue, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 64.4, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
