Original White vs Stream
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Hue-wise, Original White belongs to the greige-grey family and Stream to the blue family. Original White (LRV 74) reflects noticeably more light than Stream (LRV 57), a difference of 17 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Original White runs warm while Stream is decidedly cool, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 15.7, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
