Ashland Slate vs Ice Mist
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Ashland Slate reads as grey, while Ice Mist reads as green-white — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Ice Mist (LRV 89) reflects noticeably more light than Ashland Slate (LRV 16), a difference of 73 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Ashland Slate runs blue while Ice Mist is decidedly green, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 50.2, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
