Oriole vs Peacock Blue
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Oriole belongs to the beige-pink family and Peacock Blue to the blue family. Peacock Blue (LRV 37) reflects noticeably more light than Oriole (LRV 29), a difference of 8 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Oriole runs red while Peacock Blue is decidedly blue, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 77.2, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
