Floral White vs October Mist
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Floral White reads as beige-white, while October Mist reads as grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Floral White (LRV 80) reflects noticeably more light than October Mist (LRV 47), a difference of 34 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean yellow, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. With a ΔE of 19.0, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
