Pennywise vs Snowbound
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Pennywise reads as beige-pink, while Snowbound reads as beige-greige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Snowbound (LRV 83) reflects noticeably more light than Pennywise (LRV 15), a difference of 68 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean warm, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. With a ΔE of 61.3, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
