Awareness vs Sourdough

Both from PPG's palette. Awareness reads as yellow, while Sourdough reads as beige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Awareness (LRV 77) reflects noticeably more light than Sourdough (LRV 62), a difference of 15 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. With a ΔE of 22.5, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
