Ultra White vs Wild Orchid
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Ultra White belongs to the green-white family and Wild Orchid to the grey family. Ultra White (LRV 83) reflects noticeably more light than Wild Orchid (LRV 25), a difference of 58 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Ultra White runs green while Wild Orchid is decidedly purple, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 42.7, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
