Barely There vs Cherry Burst

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Barely There reads as beige-greige, while Cherry Burst reads as pink-red — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Barely There (LRV 78) reflects noticeably more light than Cherry Burst (LRV 11), a difference of 67 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Barely There runs yellow while Cherry Burst is decidedly red, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 76.9, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
