Butter Cookie vs Hawthorne Green
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Butter Cookie belongs to the beige-yellow family and Hawthorne Green to the beige-green family. Hawthorne Green (LRV 76) reflects noticeably more light than Butter Cookie (LRV 72), a difference of 5 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean yellow, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. At ΔE 2.2, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room.
