Riverway vs Turkish Coffee
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Riverway reads as blue-grey, while Turkish Coffee reads as beige-pink — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Riverway (LRV 16) reflects noticeably more light than Turkish Coffee (LRV 5), a difference of 11 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Riverway runs cool while Turkish Coffee is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 28.3, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
