Heavenly White vs Lupine
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Heavenly White reads as greige-white, while Lupine reads as blue — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Heavenly White (LRV 81) reflects noticeably more light than Lupine (LRV 16), a difference of 65 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Heavenly White runs warm while Lupine is decidedly cool, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 53.3, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
