Funky Yellow vs Liberty Blue

Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Hue-wise, Funky Yellow belongs to the beige-yellow family and Liberty Blue to the blue family. Liberty Blue (LRV NaN) reflects noticeably more light than Funky Yellow (LRV 65), a difference of NaN points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Funky Yellow runs warm while Liberty Blue is decidedly cool, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 105.6, the contrast is hard to miss.
