Night Shade vs Wetherburn's Blue
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Night Shade reads as grey, while Wetherburn's Blue reads as blue-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Wetherburn's Blue (LRV 24) reflects noticeably more light than Night Shade (LRV 6), a difference of 18 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Night Shade runs red while Wetherburn's Blue is decidedly blue, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 31.2, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
