Oyster Bar vs Starry Night

Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Hue-wise, Oyster Bar belongs to the beige family and Starry Night to the blue-grey family. Starry Night (LRV 69) reflects noticeably more light than Oyster Bar (LRV 64), a difference of 5 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Oyster Bar 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 14.9, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
