Aged Bronze vs Andes Summit

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Aged Bronze belongs to the beige family and Andes Summit to the blue-grey family. They have nearly identical light reflectance values (16 vs 14), so they'll read as similarly Dark in most lighting conditions. Aged Bronze runs red while Andes Summit is decidedly blue, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 33.4, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
