Cotton Knit vs Nano White
Both from Behr's palette. These are both beige-greiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige-greige to land. Nano White (LRV 87) reflects noticeably more light than Cotton Knit (LRV 74), a difference of 13 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Cotton Knit runs red while Nano White is decidedly yellow, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 7.1 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
