Aspen Skies vs Gray Mist
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Aspen Skies belongs to the blue family and Gray Mist to the beige-greige family. Gray Mist (LRV 73) reflects noticeably more light than Aspen Skies (LRV 46), a difference of 27 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Aspen Skies runs cool while Gray Mist is decidedly yellow, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 24.9, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
