Cloud Cover vs Mineral Springs
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Cloud Cover reads as beige-greige, while Mineral Springs reads as blue — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Cloud Cover (LRV 80) reflects noticeably more light than Mineral Springs (LRV 62), a difference of 19 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Cloud Cover runs yellow while Mineral Springs is decidedly cool, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 20.6, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
