Amazon Soil vs Azores

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Amazon Soil reads as grey, while Azores reads as green-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Azores (LRV 34) reflects noticeably more light than Amazon Soil (LRV 13), a difference of 20 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Amazon Soil runs red while Azores is decidedly green, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 29.5, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
