Blue Stream vs Cream Puff

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Blue Stream reads as blue, while Cream Puff reads as pink-red — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Cream Puff (LRV 82) reflects noticeably more light than Blue Stream (LRV 56), a difference of 26 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Blue Stream runs blue while Cream Puff is decidedly red, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 21.1, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
