Bordeaux Red vs River Reflections

Bordeaux Red and River Reflections come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. Bordeaux Red reads as pink-red, while River Reflections reads as greige-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 26-point LRV gap — 35 for River Reflections vs 9 for Bordeaux Red — means River Reflections will open up a space more effectively. Both share a red character, which means they'll respond to light and surrounding materials in similar ways. A ΔE of 37.3 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.
