Artichoke vs Redwing
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Artichoke reads as grey, while Redwing reads as pink-red — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Artichoke (LRV 21) reflects noticeably more light than Redwing (LRV 7), a difference of 15 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Artichoke runs neutral while Redwing is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 69.2, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
