Freesia vs Light Daffodil
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Freesia reads as blue, while Light Daffodil reads as beige-yellow — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Light Daffodil (LRV 82) reflects noticeably more light than Freesia (LRV 45), a difference of 37 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Freesia runs blue while Light Daffodil is decidedly yellow, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 44.7, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

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.
