Houseplant vs Studio Clay
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Houseplant reads as green-yellow, while Studio Clay reads as greige-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Studio Clay (LRV 27) reflects noticeably more light than Houseplant (LRV 14), a difference of 13 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Houseplant runs neutral while Studio Clay is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 29.0, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
