At Sea vs Balboa Mist
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. At Sea reads as blue-green, while Balboa Mist reads as beige-greige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. At Sea (LRV 71) reflects noticeably more light than Balboa Mist (LRV 66), a difference of 5 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. At Sea runs green while Balboa Mist is decidedly red, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 12.6, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
