Light of the Moon vs Starry Night Blue
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Light of the Moon reads as beige-yellow, while Starry Night Blue reads as blue — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Light of the Moon (LRV 82) reflects noticeably more light than Starry Night Blue (LRV 8), a difference of 75 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Light of the Moon runs yellow while Starry Night Blue is decidedly blue, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 86.9, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
