Tavern Ochre vs West Coast
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Tavern Ochre reads as beige, while West Coast reads as blue — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Tavern Ochre (LRV 46) reflects noticeably more light than West Coast (LRV 24), a difference of 21 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Tavern Ochre runs red while West Coast is decidedly blue, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 51.5, the contrast is hard to miss.
