Downpour Blue vs Snowfall White
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Downpour Blue reads as blue, while Snowfall White reads as white-yellow — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Snowfall White (LRV 90) reflects noticeably more light than Downpour Blue (LRV 7), a difference of 82 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Downpour Blue runs blue while Snowfall White is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 73.7, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
