Chinaberry vs Cloud White

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Chinaberry belongs to the pink-red family and Cloud White to the beige-white family. Cloud White (LRV 85) reflects noticeably more light than Chinaberry (LRV 12), a difference of 73 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Chinaberry 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 70.7, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
