Raphael vs Sweet Rosy Brown

Raphael and Sweet Rosy Brown come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. These are both pinks, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within pink to land. The 4-point LRV gap — 11 for Sweet Rosy Brown vs 7 for Raphael — means Sweet Rosy Brown will open up a space more effectively. Both share a red character, which means they'll respond to light and surrounding materials in similar ways. A ΔE of 13.5 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.
