Hearts Of Palm vs Independent Gold
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Hearts Of Palm reads as beige-yellow, while Independent Gold reads as beige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Hearts Of Palm (LRV 54) reflects noticeably more light than Independent Gold (LRV 50), a difference of 3 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. The ΔE 6.3 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
