Hemlock vs Rapture

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hemlock reads as blue, while Rapture reads as pink-red — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Hemlock (LRV 29) reflects noticeably more light than Rapture (LRV 11), a difference of 18 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Hemlock runs blue while Rapture is decidedly red, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 65.5, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
