South Beach vs Summer Green
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, South Beach belongs to the blue family and Summer Green to the blue-green family. Summer Green (LRV 74) reflects noticeably more light than South Beach (LRV 60), a difference of 14 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean green and blue, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. With a ΔE of 12.6, 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.
