Colony Green vs Raspberry Ice

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Colony Green reads as green, while Raspberry Ice reads as pink-purple — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Raspberry Ice (LRV 76) reflects noticeably more light than Colony Green (LRV 66), a difference of 10 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Colony Green runs green while Raspberry Ice is decidedly purple, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 13.0, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
