Lightning Bolt vs Sun City

Lightning Bolt and Sun City come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. These are both beige-yellows, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige-yellow to land. The 3-point LRV gap — 83 for Lightning Bolt vs 79 for Sun City — means Lightning Bolt will open up a space more effectively. Both share a yellow character, which means they'll respond to light and surrounding materials in similar ways. A ΔE of 11.9 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.
