Roman Column vs Slow Green

Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Roman Column reads as beige, while Slow Green reads as green — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Roman Column (LRV 88) reflects noticeably more light than Slow Green (LRV 64), a difference of 24 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Roman Column runs warm while Slow Green is decidedly cool, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 13.4, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
