Olympus Green vs Studio Clay
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Olympus Green belongs to the blue-green family and Studio Clay to the greige-grey family. Studio Clay (LRV 29) reflects noticeably more light than Olympus Green (LRV 9), a difference of 19 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Olympus Green runs blue while Studio Clay is decidedly red, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 31.1, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.

Digital color is approximate.
