Honorable Blue vs Nasturtium
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Honorable Blue reads as blue, while Nasturtium reads as beige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Nasturtium (LRV 50) reflects noticeably more light than Honorable Blue (LRV 6), a difference of 44 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Honorable Blue runs cool while Nasturtium is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 112.5, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.
