Badlands vs Deserted Island
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Badlands belongs to the pink-red family and Deserted Island to the beige family. Deserted Island (LRV 76) reflects noticeably more light than Badlands (LRV 25), a difference of 51 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 44.7, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
