Misted Fern vs Oak Grove
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. These are both yellows, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within yellow to land. Misted Fern (LRV 31) reflects noticeably more light than Oak Grove (LRV 20), a difference of 10 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean yellow, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. With a ΔE of 11.2, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
