August Moon vs Blueblood
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. August Moon reads as beige, while Blueblood reads as blue — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. August Moon (LRV 60) reflects noticeably more light than Blueblood (LRV 7), a difference of 53 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. August Moon runs warm while Blueblood is decidedly cool, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 77.5, the contrast is hard to miss.
