Obsidian Green vs Whitening
Both are Little Greene colors. Obsidian Green reads as green, while Whitening reads as beige-white — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. At LRV 88 vs 1, Whitening will read as the brighter of the two — a 87-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. The tonal difference — Obsidian Green's green character against Whitening's yellow — becomes most visible against white trim or in morning light. At ΔE 84.8, these are genuinely distinct colors — a strong contrast if used together, or a meaningful choice between two different directions.
