Purple Passage vs Urban Jungle
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Purple Passage reads as blue-grey, while Urban Jungle reads as beige-greige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Urban Jungle (LRV 31) reflects noticeably more light than Purple Passage (LRV 12), a difference of 19 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Purple Passage runs cool while Urban Jungle is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 34.6, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
