Caponata vs Water Drops
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Caponata reads as pink, while Water Drops reads as blue-green — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Water Drops (LRV 73) reflects noticeably more light than Caponata (LRV 6), a difference of 67 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Caponata runs red while Water Drops is decidedly green, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 70.2, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
