Deep Silver vs Silent Night

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Deep Silver belongs to the grey family and Silent Night to the blue-grey family. Silent Night (LRV 45) reflects noticeably more light than Deep Silver (LRV 29), a difference of 16 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean blue, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. With a ΔE of 13.6, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
