Naval vs Ski Slope
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Naval reads as blue, while Ski Slope reads as green-white — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Ski Slope (LRV 78) reflects noticeably more light than Naval (LRV 4), a difference of 73 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Naval runs cool while Ski Slope is decidedly neutral, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 66.4, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.

Digital color is approximate. These simulations are generated from the manufacturer's hex values and overlaid on grayscale room photos — your screen's calibration, brightness, and viewing angle all affect how they render. Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
