Gray Mist vs Tucson Red
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Gray Mist reads as beige-greige, while Tucson Red reads as pink-red — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Gray Mist (LRV 73) reflects noticeably more light than Tucson Red (LRV 14), a difference of 58 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Gray Mist runs warm while Tucson Red is decidedly red, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 60.7, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
