Spring Violet vs Winter Snow

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Spring Violet belongs to the blue-grey family and Winter Snow to the green-white family. Winter Snow (LRV 82) reflects noticeably more light than Spring Violet (LRV 43), a difference of 39 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Spring Violet runs purple while Winter Snow is decidedly green, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 25.1, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
