Red vs Strawberry Red

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Both sit in the pink-red family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. They have nearly identical light reflectance values (14 vs 16), so they'll read as similarly Dark in most lighting conditions. Both lean red, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. With a ΔE of 10.2, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
