Barnboard vs Cable Knit

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Barnboard reads as greige-grey, while Cable Knit reads as beige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Cable Knit (LRV 63) reflects noticeably more light than Barnboard (LRV 23), a difference of 40 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean warm, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. With a ΔE of 31.2, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
