Refined vs Snowfall White
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Refined reads as beige-greige, while Snowfall White reads as white-yellow — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Snowfall White (LRV 90) reflects noticeably more light than Refined (LRV 72), a difference of 18 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Refined runs yellow while Snowfall White is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 9.9 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.

Digital color is approximate.
