Paper White vs Spring Purple
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Paper White reads as green-grey, while Spring Purple reads as blue-purple — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Paper White (LRV 74) reflects noticeably more light than Spring Purple (LRV 26), a difference of 49 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Paper White runs green while Spring Purple is decidedly blue and purple, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 41.3, 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. These simulations are generated from the manufacturer's hex values and overlaid on grayscale room photos — your screen's calibration, brightness, and viewing angle all affect how they render. Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
