Mint Chocolate Chip vs Thornton Sage
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Mint Chocolate Chip reads as green, while Thornton Sage reads as green-yellow — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Mint Chocolate Chip (LRV 69) reflects noticeably more light than Thornton Sage (LRV 66), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean green, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. At ΔE 2.8, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room.
