Garden Path vs Mythic
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Garden Path reads as green-grey, while Mythic reads as grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Garden Path (LRV 43) reflects noticeably more light than Mythic (LRV 12), a difference of 31 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Garden Path runs green while Mythic is decidedly purple, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 36.9, 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.
