Byzantine Gold vs Gray Cashmere
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Byzantine Gold belongs to the beige family and Gray Cashmere to the green-grey family. Gray Cashmere (LRV 65) reflects noticeably more light than Byzantine Gold (LRV 26), a difference of 38 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Byzantine Gold runs red while Gray Cashmere is decidedly green, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 37.7, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
