Cayman Lagoon vs Cloud White

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Cayman Lagoon reads as blue, while Cloud White reads as beige-white — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Cloud White (LRV 85) reflects noticeably more light than Cayman Lagoon (LRV 25), a difference of 60 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Cayman Lagoon runs green and blue while Cloud White is decidedly yellow, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 54.9, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
