Black grey vs Pastel green
Both from RAL Classic's palette. Black grey reads as blue-grey, while Pastel green reads as green — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Pastel green (LRV 58) reflects noticeably more light than Black grey (LRV 6), a difference of 52 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. With a ΔE of 63.3, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.

Digital color is approximate.
