Golden Hills vs Sequoia

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Golden Hills belongs to the beige-yellow family and Sequoia to the pink family. Golden Hills (LRV 64) reflects noticeably more light than Sequoia (LRV 17), a difference of 47 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Golden Hills runs yellow while Sequoia is decidedly red, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 43.1, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
