Feather Gray vs Peanut Shell

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Feather Gray belongs to the blue-grey family and Peanut Shell to the beige family. Feather Gray (LRV 58) reflects noticeably more light than Peanut Shell (LRV 35), a difference of 23 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Feather Gray runs blue while Peanut Shell is decidedly red, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 34.5, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
