Blackberry Wine vs Guilford Green

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Blackberry Wine belongs to the blue-purple family and Guilford Green to the beige-green family. Guilford Green (LRV 57) reflects noticeably more light than Blackberry Wine (LRV 8), a difference of 49 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Blackberry Wine runs blue and purple while Guilford Green is decidedly yellow, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 61.0, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
