Blue Stream vs Wandering Heart
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Blue Stream reads as blue, while Wandering Heart reads as beige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Blue Stream (LRV 56) reflects noticeably more light than Wandering Heart (LRV 49), a difference of 7 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Blue Stream runs blue while Wandering Heart is decidedly red, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 39.2, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
