First Light vs Butter
First Light is a Little Greene color while Butter comes from PPG. These are both beige-yellows, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige-yellow to land. At LRV 92 vs 82, First Light will read as the brighter of the two — a 10-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. At ΔE 11.7, these are genuinely distinct colors — a strong contrast if used together, or a meaningful choice between two different directions.
