Dark Burgundy vs Seaweed
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Dark Burgundy reads as pink, while Seaweed reads as green — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Seaweed (LRV 12) reflects noticeably more light than Dark Burgundy (LRV 7), a difference of 5 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Dark Burgundy runs red while Seaweed is decidedly green, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 66.9, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
