Safari vs Starry Night
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Hue-wise, Safari belongs to the beige family and Starry Night to the blue-grey family. Starry Night (LRV 69) reflects noticeably more light than Safari (LRV 46), a difference of 23 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Safari runs warm while Starry Night is decidedly cool, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 29.2, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
