Coat of Arms vs Night Shade
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Coat of Arms belongs to the blue family and Night Shade to the grey family. Coat of Arms (LRV 15) reflects noticeably more light than Night Shade (LRV 6), a difference of 9 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Coat of Arms runs blue while Night Shade is decidedly red, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 29.0, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
