Blue Oasis vs Oatmeal

Both from PPG's palette. Blue Oasis reads as blue, while Oatmeal reads as beige-greige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Oatmeal (LRV 76) reflects noticeably more light than Blue Oasis (LRV 15), a difference of 61 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. With a ΔE of 58.1, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
