Blue Gaspe vs Brushed Aluminum
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Blue Gaspe belongs to the blue-grey family and Brushed Aluminum to the greige-grey family. Brushed Aluminum (LRV 55) reflects noticeably more light than Blue Gaspe (LRV 14), a difference of 42 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Blue Gaspe runs blue while Brushed Aluminum is decidedly yellow, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 42.1, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
