Grasslands vs Violet Dusk
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Grasslands belongs to the beige-greige family and Violet Dusk to the blue-grey family. Violet Dusk (LRV 70) reflects noticeably more light than Grasslands (LRV 42), a difference of 28 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Grasslands runs yellow while Violet Dusk is decidedly blue, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 30.8, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.

Digital color is approximate. These simulations are generated from the manufacturer's hex values and overlaid on grayscale room photos — your screen's calibration, brightness, and viewing angle all affect how they render. Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
