Gray Cardigan vs Iced Lavender
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Gray Cardigan belongs to the grey family and Iced Lavender to the blue-grey family. Iced Lavender (LRV 65) reflects noticeably more light than Gray Cardigan (LRV 35), a difference of 30 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Gray Cardigan runs green and blue while Iced Lavender is decidedly blue and purple, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources.
