Kismet vs Lavish Lavender
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. These are both purples, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within purple to land. Kismet (LRV 29) reflects noticeably more light than Lavish Lavender (LRV 22), a difference of 7 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean cool, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. The ΔE 8.7 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
