Crisp Straw vs Jet Stream

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Crisp Straw belongs to the beige family and Jet Stream to the blue family. Crisp Straw (LRV 68) reflects noticeably more light than Jet Stream (LRV 66), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Crisp Straw runs red while Jet Stream is decidedly blue, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 35.9, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
