Lavender Wash vs Seattle Gray
Both are Benjamin Moore colors. These are both blue-greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within blue-grey to land. At LRV 73 vs 65, Seattle Gray will read as the brighter of the two — a 8-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. They share a blue quality — useful to know if you're layering them in the same space. At ΔE 4.6, the difference is perceptible but not dramatic — the two can work harmoniously in the same space.
