Perfect Taupe vs Shiitake

Perfect Taupe and Shiitake come from the same Behr collection. These are both greige-greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within greige-grey to land. The 10-point LRV gap — 42 for Perfect Taupe vs 33 for Shiitake — means Perfect Taupe will open up a space more effectively. Both share a red character, which means they'll respond to light and surrounding materials in similar ways. ΔE 7.5 means they're clearly different, but not dramatically so — they'd pair well in the same room.
