Hi Jeremy, It looks like the normal of your surfaces is different. I mean the rectangle on the left has an outward normal, the one on the right, an inward one. For seen the same colors, you can do two things: - modifying the geometry for having all normals oriented in the same sense; - turning off the lighting: Tools->Options->Mesh->Enable lighting, or add "Mesh.Light = 0;" at the beginning of your file.
