Britannia Blue vs Himalayan Trek
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Britannia Blue belongs to the blue-grey family and Himalayan Trek to the greige-grey family. Himalayan Trek (LRV 47) reflects noticeably more light than Britannia Blue (LRV 18), a difference of 29 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Britannia Blue runs blue while Himalayan Trek is decidedly red, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 30.0, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
