Comet vs Indian River

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Comet belongs to the blue-grey family and Indian River to the beige-greige family. They have nearly identical light reflectance values (36 vs 37), so they'll read as similarly Medium in most lighting conditions. Comet runs blue while Indian River is decidedly red, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 18.5, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
