Hawaiian Breeze vs Hint of Violet
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Hawaiian Breeze belongs to the blue family and Hint of Violet to the grey-purple family. Hint of Violet (LRV 66) reflects noticeably more light than Hawaiian Breeze (LRV 62), a difference of 4 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Hawaiian Breeze runs blue while Hint of Violet is decidedly red, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 18.4, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
