Bella Blue vs Newburg Green
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Bella Blue reads as blue, while Newburg Green reads as blue-green — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Bella Blue (LRV 18) reflects noticeably more light than Newburg Green (LRV 11), a difference of 7 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean blue, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. With a ΔE of 11.0, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
