Rich Chestnut vs Snowfall White
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Rich Chestnut reads as pink-red, while Snowfall White reads as white-yellow — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Snowfall White (LRV 90) reflects noticeably more light than Rich Chestnut (LRV 12), a difference of 77 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Rich Chestnut runs red while Snowfall White is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 69.7, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
