Cream Cloak vs Ebony Slate
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Cream Cloak reads as beige-greige, while Ebony Slate reads as blue-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Cream Cloak (LRV 75) reflects noticeably more light than Ebony Slate (LRV 9), a difference of 66 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Cream Cloak runs yellow while Ebony Slate is decidedly blue and purple, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 60.7, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
