Aquarius vs Garrison Red

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Aquarius belongs to the blue family and Garrison Red to the pink-red family. Aquarius (LRV 47) reflects noticeably more light than Garrison Red (LRV 14), a difference of 33 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Aquarius runs blue while Garrison Red is decidedly red, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 56.3, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
