Impressive Ivory vs Welcome White
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Impressive Ivory reads as beige, while Welcome White reads as beige-white — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Welcome White (LRV 78) reflects noticeably more light than Impressive Ivory (LRV 76), 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. At ΔE 2.9, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room.
