Brooklet vs Positive Red
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Brooklet reads as blue-green, while Positive Red reads as pink-red — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Brooklet (LRV 85) reflects noticeably more light than Positive Red (LRV 11), a difference of 74 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Brooklet runs cool while Positive Red is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 82.1, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
