Briarwood vs Misty Memories
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Briarwood reads as greige-grey, while Misty Memories reads as blue-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Misty Memories (LRV 60) reflects noticeably more light than Briarwood (LRV 32), a difference of 28 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Briarwood runs red while Misty Memories is decidedly blue, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 22.8, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
