Blue Lapis vs Winter Sunshine
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Blue Lapis reads as blue, while Winter Sunshine reads as beige-yellow — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Winter Sunshine (LRV 82) reflects noticeably more light than Blue Lapis (LRV 27), a difference of 54 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Blue Lapis runs blue while Winter Sunshine is decidedly yellow, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 69.0, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
