Feather Down vs Vapor

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Feather Down belongs to the beige family and Vapor to the beige-yellow family. Vapor (LRV 82) reflects noticeably more light than Feather Down (LRV 73), a difference of 8 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Feather Down runs yellow and red while Vapor is decidedly yellow, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 4.8 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
