Sweet Butter vs True Blue
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Sweet Butter reads as beige, while True Blue reads as blue — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Sweet Butter (LRV 70) reflects noticeably more light than True Blue (LRV 46), a difference of 24 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Sweet Butter runs red while True Blue is decidedly blue, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 73.4, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
