Lime Twist vs Violet Petal

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Lime Twist belongs to the green-yellow family and Violet Petal to the purple family. They have nearly identical light reflectance values (54 vs 54), so they'll read as similarly Medium in most lighting conditions. Lime Twist runs green while Violet Petal is decidedly purple, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 50.5, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
