Pine Sprigs vs Plum Royale
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Pine Sprigs reads as green, while Plum Royale reads as grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Pine Sprigs (LRV 72) reflects noticeably more light than Plum Royale (LRV 6), a difference of 66 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Pine Sprigs runs green while Plum Royale is decidedly purple, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 73.8, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
