Aquaverde vs Heartthrob
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Aquaverde reads as blue, while Heartthrob reads as pink-red — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Aquaverde (LRV 49) reflects noticeably more light than Heartthrob (LRV 11), a difference of 38 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Aquaverde runs cool while Heartthrob is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 75.9, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
