Aegean Olive vs Gargoyle
Both are Benjamin Moore colors. Both sit in the greige-grey family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. At LRV 19 vs 12, Gargoyle will read as the brighter of the two — a 7-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. The tonal difference — Aegean Olive's yellow character against Gargoyle's red — becomes most visible against white trim or in morning light. At ΔE 11.7, these are genuinely distinct colors — a strong contrast if used together, or a meaningful choice between two different directions.
