Annapolis Gray vs White Winged Dove
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Both sit in the beige-greige family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. White Winged Dove (LRV 75) reflects noticeably more light than Annapolis Gray (LRV 51), a difference of 25 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean red, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. With a ΔE of 13.3, the contrast is hard to miss.
