Endless Sea vs Flan
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Endless Sea reads as blue, while Flan reads as beige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Flan (LRV 69) reflects noticeably more light than Endless Sea (LRV 9), a difference of 61 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Endless Sea runs cool while Flan is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 65.6, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
