Martini Olive vs Humble Yellow

These are both beige-yellows, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige-yellow to land. Humble Yellow (LRV 57) reflects noticeably more light than Martini Olive (LRV 44), a difference of 13 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Martini Olive runs yellow while Humble Yellow is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 32.0, the contrast is hard to miss.
