Help with sofa fabric, warm bulbs make colors look different at night!

Going a little nuts here. Some of you may remember I have red leather chairs in my dining area and an aqua patterned rug in the living area. Am now looking for an aqua sofa.


In my picture are (top) a Tatum teal from Room & Board, (middle) a teal from Mitchell Gold Bob Williams, and (bottom) a Charles Spruce from Benchmade Modern. During the day the Charles Spruce picks up the aqua in the rug. The two teals look fine with the rug but they don’t look aqua.


At night it’s a different story. The teals look great, especially the MGBW which has lots of dimension. Could this be because of my warm lightbulbs? What to do?


Here on houzz you have encouraged me not to add any more colors haha so I am trying to stick to aqua. But the Benchmade Modern is a lot pricier than the other two. Not ruling it out but ouch. I realize it’s hard to see accurate color on your screen but what do others do about the daylight/evening difference? Thoughts appreciated!
