Coral Glow vs Deep River

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Coral Glow belongs to the beige-pink family and Deep River to the grey family. Coral Glow (LRV 42) reflects noticeably more light than Deep River (LRV 8), a difference of 35 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Coral Glow runs red while Deep River is decidedly green, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 52.2, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
