Tarragon vs Windfresh White
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Tarragon reads as blue-grey, while Windfresh White reads as beige-greige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Windfresh White (LRV 69) reflects noticeably more light than Tarragon (LRV 7), a difference of 62 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Tarragon runs cool while Windfresh White is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 55.3, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.

Digital color is approximate.
