Quicksilver vs Storm Cloud

Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Quicksilver reads as green-white, while Storm Cloud reads as blue-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Quicksilver (LRV 75) reflects noticeably more light than Storm Cloud (LRV 23), a difference of 53 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean neutral, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. 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.
