Agate Green vs Forever Green
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. These are both green-greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within green-grey to land. Forever Green (LRV 44) reflects noticeably more light than Agate Green (LRV 34), a difference of 10 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Agate Green runs cool while Forever Green is decidedly neutral, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 12.9, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
