River Gorge Gray vs Snow on the Mountain
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. River Gorge Gray reads as greige-grey, while Snow on the Mountain reads as beige-yellow — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Snow on the Mountain (LRV 80) reflects noticeably more light than River Gorge Gray (LRV 33), a difference of 47 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. River Gorge Gray runs yellow and red while Snow on the Mountain is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 29.3, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
