Pale Moss vs Underseas

Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Hue-wise, Pale Moss belongs to the beige family and Underseas to the green-grey family. Pale Moss (LRV 58) reflects noticeably more light than Underseas (LRV 25), a difference of 33 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Pale Moss runs warm while Underseas is decidedly neutral, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 35.4, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
