Sequoia vs Stonington Gray

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Sequoia belongs to the pink family and Stonington Gray to the grey family. Stonington Gray (LRV 59) reflects noticeably more light than Sequoia (LRV 17), a difference of 43 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Sequoia runs red while Stonington Gray is decidedly yellow, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 36.8, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
