Deep Silver vs Himalayan Trek

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Deep Silver belongs to the grey family and Himalayan Trek to the greige-grey family. Himalayan Trek (LRV 47) reflects noticeably more light than Deep Silver (LRV 29), a difference of 18 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Deep Silver runs blue while Himalayan Trek is decidedly red, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 17.8, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
