Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Hale Navy belongs to the blue-grey family and Spring Dust to the beige-yellow family.

Hale Navy runs blue while Spring Dust is decidedly yellow, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 63.3, the contrast is hard to miss.
