Dolphin vs White Blush

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Dolphin belongs to the grey family and White Blush to the beige-white family. White Blush (LRV 85) reflects noticeably more light than Dolphin (LRV 24), a difference of 61 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Dolphin runs yellow while White Blush is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 40.4, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
