Spring Fresh vs Strawberry Shortcake
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Spring Fresh belongs to the blue-green family and Strawberry Shortcake to the pink-red family. Spring Fresh (LRV 57) reflects noticeably more light than Strawberry Shortcake (LRV 37), a difference of 19 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Spring Fresh runs green while Strawberry Shortcake is decidedly red, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 77.7, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
