Camel vs Cloud White

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Camel belongs to the beige family and Cloud White to the beige-white family. Cloud White (LRV 85) reflects noticeably more light than Camel (LRV 21), a difference of 64 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Camel runs red while Cloud White is decidedly yellow, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 54.5, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
