Chiswell Blue vs Lambskin

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Chiswell Blue belongs to the blue-grey family and Lambskin to the beige family. Lambskin (LRV 71) reflects noticeably more light than Chiswell Blue (LRV 30), a difference of 42 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Chiswell Blue runs blue while Lambskin is decidedly red, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 34.3, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
