Inspired vs Spring Violet

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Inspired belongs to the grey-red family and Spring Violet to the blue-grey family. Spring Violet (LRV 43) reflects noticeably more light than Inspired (LRV 37), a difference of 6 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Inspired runs purple and red while Spring Violet is decidedly purple, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 6.1 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
