Gumdrop vs Halo

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Gumdrop belongs to the green family and Halo to the beige-greige family. Halo (LRV 72) reflects noticeably more light than Gumdrop (LRV 42), a difference of 30 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Gumdrop runs green while Halo is decidedly yellow, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 29.9, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
