Lime White vs Normandy

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Lime White belongs to the beige-white family and Normandy to the blue-grey family. Lime White (LRV 75) reflects noticeably more light than Normandy (LRV 22), a difference of 54 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Lime White runs red while Normandy is decidedly blue, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 42.3, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
