Barely There vs Light Pewter
Barely There and Light Pewter come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. These are both beige-greiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige-greige to land. The 10-point LRV gap — 78 for Barely There vs 68 for Light Pewter — means Barely There will open up a space more effectively. Both share a yellow character, which means they'll respond to light and surrounding materials in similar ways. ΔE 5.1 means they're clearly different, but not dramatically so — they'd pair well in the same room.
