Castleton Mist vs Luxe

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Castleton Mist reads as beige-yellow, while Luxe reads as blue-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Castleton Mist (LRV 61) reflects noticeably more light than Luxe (LRV 22), a difference of 40 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Castleton Mist runs yellow while Luxe is decidedly blue, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 50.0, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
