Hearth Red vs Westwood Tan
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hearth Red reads as pink-red, while Westwood Tan reads as beige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Westwood Tan (LRV 45) reflects noticeably more light than Hearth Red (LRV 13), a difference of 32 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean red, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. With a ΔE of 45.6, 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.
