Poolside vs Secluded Beach
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Poolside reads as blue, while Secluded Beach reads as beige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Secluded Beach (LRV 74) reflects noticeably more light than Poolside (LRV 28), a difference of 46 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Poolside runs blue while Secluded Beach is decidedly red, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 55.1, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
