Dune White vs Ryan Red

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Dune White belongs to the beige-greige family and Ryan Red to the pink-red family. Dune White (LRV 80) reflects noticeably more light than Ryan Red (LRV 18), a difference of 62 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Dune White runs warm while Ryan Red is decidedly red, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 72.9, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
