Evening Dove vs Meditation
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Evening Dove reads as blue-grey, while Meditation reads as beige-greige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Meditation (LRV 36) reflects noticeably more light than Evening Dove (LRV 12), a difference of 24 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Evening Dove runs blue while Meditation is decidedly yellow, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 36.3, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
