Evergreen Fog vs Vermilion
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Evergreen Fog reads as green-grey, while Vermilion reads as pink-red — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Evergreen Fog (LRV 30) reflects noticeably more light than Vermilion (LRV 5), a difference of 25 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Evergreen Fog runs neutral while Vermilion is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 60.5, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
