Green Hydrangea vs Mellowed Ivory
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Green Hydrangea belongs to the beige-green family and Mellowed Ivory to the beige-yellow family. Mellowed Ivory (LRV 64) reflects noticeably more light than Green Hydrangea (LRV 56), a difference of 9 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean yellow, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. With a ΔE of 13.5, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
