Forever Green vs Holly Glen
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. These are both green-greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within green-grey to land. Holly Glen (LRV 57) reflects noticeably more light than Forever Green (LRV 44), a difference of 13 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Forever Green runs neutral while Holly Glen is decidedly cool, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 8.3 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
