Kelp Forest Green vs Pink Begonia
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Kelp Forest Green reads as blue-green, while Pink Begonia reads as pink — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Pink Begonia (LRV 52) reflects noticeably more light than Kelp Forest Green (LRV 24), a difference of 28 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Kelp Forest Green runs green and blue while Pink Begonia is decidedly red, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 70.9, the contrast is hard to miss.
