Bewitching Blue vs Original White

Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Hue-wise, Bewitching Blue belongs to the blue family and Original White to the greige-grey family. Original White (LRV 74) reflects noticeably more light than Bewitching Blue (LRV 61), a difference of 12 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Bewitching Blue runs cool while Original White is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 15.5, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
