Carolina Plum vs Wedding Veil
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Carolina Plum reads as grey, while Wedding Veil reads as green-white — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Wedding Veil (LRV 84) reflects noticeably more light than Carolina Plum (LRV 27), a difference of 57 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Carolina Plum runs purple while Wedding Veil is decidedly green, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 42.0, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
