Argos vs Gecko
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Argos reads as grey, while Gecko reads as yellow — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Argos (LRV 51) reflects noticeably more light than Gecko (LRV 22), a difference of 28 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean neutral, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. With a ΔE of 48.5, 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. These simulations are generated from the manufacturer's hex values and overlaid on grayscale room photos — your screen's calibration, brightness, and viewing angle all affect how they render. Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
