Tea Room vs Teal
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Tea Room belongs to the pink family and Teal to the blue family. Tea Room (LRV 20) reflects noticeably more light than Teal (LRV 6), a difference of 14 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Tea Room runs red while Teal is decidedly blue, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 45.9, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.

Digital color is approximate. These simulations are generated from the manufacturer's hex values and overlaid on grayscale room photos — your screen's calibration, brightness, and viewing angle all affect how they render.
