Hathaway Gold vs Spellbound
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hathaway Gold reads as beige, while Spellbound reads as blue — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Hathaway Gold (LRV 44) reflects noticeably more light than Spellbound (LRV 13), a difference of 30 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Hathaway Gold runs red while Spellbound is decidedly blue, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 57.6, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
