Equestrian Gray vs Spring Meadow

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Equestrian Gray reads as greige-grey, while Spring Meadow reads as yellow — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Spring Meadow (LRV 57) reflects noticeably more light than Equestrian Gray (LRV 25), a difference of 32 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Equestrian Gray runs red while Spring Meadow is decidedly yellow, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 26.0, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
