Bennington Gray vs Starfish

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Bennington Gray reads as beige-greige, while Starfish reads as beige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Bennington Gray (LRV 47) reflects noticeably more light than Starfish (LRV 41), a difference of 6 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 24.5, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
