Brownstone vs Downtown

Brownstone and Downtown come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. Both sit in the greige-grey family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. The 25-point LRV gap — 33 for Downtown vs 8 for Brownstone — means Downtown 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 35.1 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.
