Angels Gate vs Moon Shadow
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Angels Gate reads as beige-yellow, while Moon Shadow reads as beige-greige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Angels Gate (LRV 81) reflects noticeably more light than Moon Shadow (LRV 57), a difference of 24 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Angels Gate runs warm while Moon Shadow is decidedly yellow, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 13.3, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
