Griffin vs Secure Blue
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Hue-wise, Griffin belongs to the greige-grey family and Secure Blue to the blue family. Secure Blue (LRV 22) reflects noticeably more light than Griffin (LRV 13), a difference of 9 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Griffin runs warm while Secure Blue is decidedly cool, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 31.5, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
