Morning at Sea vs Rose Of Sharon

Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Morning at Sea reads as blue-grey, while Rose Of Sharon reads as pink — two distinct hue families, not close cousins.

Morning at Sea runs cool while Rose Of Sharon is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 30.5, the contrast is hard to miss.
