Etiquette vs Half Moon Crest
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Etiquette reads as beige-greige, while Half Moon Crest reads as grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Etiquette (LRV 74) reflects noticeably more light than Half Moon Crest (LRV 51), a difference of 23 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Etiquette runs red while Half Moon Crest is decidedly green, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 13.3, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
