Celadon vs Heritage Red

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Celadon reads as blue-green, while Heritage Red reads as pink-red — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Celadon (LRV 65) reflects noticeably more light than Heritage Red (LRV 10), a difference of 54 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Celadon runs green while Heritage Red is decidedly red, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 99.2, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
