Ravishing Red vs White Down
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Ravishing Red belongs to the pink-red family and White Down to the beige-white family. White Down (LRV 77) reflects noticeably more light than Ravishing Red (LRV 15), a difference of 61 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Ravishing Red runs warm while White Down is decidedly yellow, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 70.6, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
