Deep Forest Brown vs Piedmont
Both are Sherwin-Williams colors. Deep Forest Brown reads as grey, while Piedmont reads as green-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins.

The tonal difference — Deep Forest Brown's neutral character against Piedmont's cool — becomes most visible against white trim or in morning light. At ΔE 60.1, these are genuinely distinct colors — a strong contrast if used together, or a meaningful choice between two different directions.
