Greek Villa vs Starboard
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Hue-wise, Greek Villa belongs to the beige family and Starboard to the blue-green family. Greek Villa (LRV 84) reflects noticeably more light than Starboard (LRV 11), a difference of 73 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Greek Villa runs warm while Starboard is decidedly cool, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 63.3, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
