Ivory Tower vs Waterdrop

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Ivory Tower belongs to the beige family and Waterdrop to the blue family. Ivory Tower (LRV 86) reflects noticeably more light than Waterdrop (LRV 22), a difference of 64 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Ivory Tower runs red while Waterdrop is decidedly blue, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 61.6, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
