Spellbound vs Tavern Ochre

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Spellbound reads as blue, while Tavern Ochre reads as beige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Tavern Ochre (LRV 46) reflects noticeably more light than Spellbound (LRV 13), a difference of 32 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Spellbound runs blue while Tavern Ochre is decidedly red, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 56.5, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
