Daffodil vs Liberty Blue

Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Hue-wise, Daffodil belongs to the beige family and Liberty Blue to the blue family. Liberty Blue (LRV NaN) reflects noticeably more light than Daffodil (LRV 71), a difference of NaN points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Daffodil runs warm while Liberty Blue is decidedly cool, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 106.7, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
