Providence Blue vs Soho Loft
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Providence Blue reads as blue-grey, while Soho Loft reads as grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Soho Loft (LRV 30) reflects noticeably more light than Providence Blue (LRV 19), a difference of 11 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Providence Blue runs blue while Soho Loft is decidedly red, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 15.8, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
