Dark Teal vs Winter White
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Dark Teal reads as blue, while Winter White reads as white — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Winter White (LRV 80) reflects noticeably more light than Dark Teal (LRV 10), a difference of 69 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Dark Teal runs blue while Winter White is decidedly green, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 59.7, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.

Digital color is approximate. These simulations are generated from the manufacturer's hex values and overlaid on grayscale room photos — your screen's calibration, brightness, and viewing angle all affect how they render. Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
