Luxe vs White Marigold
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Luxe reads as blue-grey, while White Marigold reads as beige-white — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. White Marigold (LRV 77) reflects noticeably more light than Luxe (LRV 22), a difference of 56 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Luxe runs blue while White Marigold is decidedly yellow, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 47.0, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
