Chic Lime vs Granny Smith
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. Chic Lime (LRV 65) reflects noticeably more light than Granny Smith (LRV 57), a difference of 8 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 12.8, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.
