Iced Coffee vs Sagebrush

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Iced Coffee belongs to the beige-greige family and Sagebrush to the green-grey family. Sagebrush (LRV 55) reflects noticeably more light than Iced Coffee (LRV 23), a difference of 33 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Iced Coffee runs red while Sagebrush is decidedly green, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 32.9, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
