Open Seas vs Peach Blossom

Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Open Seas reads as blue, while Peach Blossom reads as beige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Peach Blossom (LRV 68) reflects noticeably more light than Open Seas (LRV 39), a difference of 28 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Open Seas runs cool while Peach Blossom is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 37.1, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
