Cream Silk vs Violet Dusk
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Cream Silk belongs to the beige-yellow family and Violet Dusk to the blue-grey family. Cream Silk (LRV 84) reflects noticeably more light than Violet Dusk (LRV 70), a difference of 14 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Cream Silk runs yellow while Violet Dusk is decidedly blue, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 18.4, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
