Filtered Sunlight vs Palatial Skies

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Filtered Sunlight belongs to the beige-red family and Palatial Skies to the blue family. Filtered Sunlight (LRV 81) reflects noticeably more light than Palatial Skies (LRV 55), a difference of 26 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Filtered Sunlight runs red while Palatial Skies is decidedly blue, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 35.2, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
