Hedgehog Brown vs Walnut

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Hedgehog Brown belongs to the beige-pink family and Walnut to the pink family. Walnut (LRV 18) reflects noticeably more light than Hedgehog Brown (LRV 13), a difference of 5 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. The ΔE 7.3 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
