Plum Dandy vs Verdigreen
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Plum Dandy reads as grey, while Verdigreen reads as green — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Verdigreen (LRV 34) reflects noticeably more light than Plum Dandy (LRV 17), a difference of 17 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean cool, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. With a ΔE of 37.3, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
