Natural Wool vs Starry Night

Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Natural Wool reads as beige, while Starry Night reads as blue-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Starry Night (LRV 69) reflects noticeably more light than Natural Wool (LRV 59), a difference of 10 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Natural Wool runs warm while Starry Night is decidedly cool, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 18.8, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
