Foxy vs Shoji White
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Foxy reads as pink-red, while Shoji White reads as beige-greige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Shoji White (LRV 74) reflects noticeably more light than Foxy (LRV 17), a difference of 57 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean warm, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. With a ΔE of 51.5, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
