Mint Condition vs Snowbound
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Hue-wise, Mint Condition belongs to the green family and Snowbound to the beige-greige family. Snowbound (LRV 83) reflects noticeably more light than Mint Condition (LRV 73), a difference of 10 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Mint Condition runs cool while Snowbound is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 10.8, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
