Flyway vs Hot Cocoa
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Flyway reads as blue, while Hot Cocoa reads as beige-pink — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Flyway (LRV 39) reflects noticeably more light than Hot Cocoa (LRV 14), a difference of 25 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Flyway runs cool while Hot Cocoa is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 51.0, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
