Copacabana vs Waterloo

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Copacabana reads as beige-yellow, while Waterloo reads as blue — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Copacabana (LRV 73) reflects noticeably more light than Waterloo (LRV 28), a difference of 45 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Copacabana runs yellow while Waterloo is decidedly blue, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 74.6, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
