St. Lucia Teal vs Under the Sea
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. St. Lucia Teal reads as blue-green, while Under the Sea reads as green-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. St. Lucia Teal (LRV 44) reflects noticeably more light than Under the Sea (LRV 11), a difference of 33 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. St. Lucia Teal runs green while Under the Sea is decidedly cool, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 33.7, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
