Silver Crest vs Simply White

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Silver Crest belongs to the green-grey family and Simply White to the beige-white family. Simply White (LRV 90) reflects noticeably more light than Silver Crest (LRV 70), a difference of 19 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Silver Crest runs green while Simply White is decidedly yellow, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 9.6 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
