Cucuzza Verde vs Lounge Green
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Cucuzza Verde reads as yellow, while Lounge Green reads as green — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. They have nearly identical light reflectance values (34 vs 36), so they'll read as similarly Medium in most lighting conditions. Cucuzza Verde runs neutral while Lounge Green is decidedly cool, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 9.3 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
