Honorable Blue vs June Day
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Honorable Blue reads as blue, while June Day reads as beige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. June Day (LRV 63) reflects noticeably more light than Honorable Blue (LRV 6), a difference of 57 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Honorable Blue runs cool while June Day is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 97.7, the contrast is hard to miss.
