Butter Cookie vs Martini Olive
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. These are both beige-yellows, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige-yellow to land. Butter Cookie (LRV 72) reflects noticeably more light than Martini Olive (LRV 44), a difference of 28 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. With a ΔE of 32.7, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
