Silver Song vs Lamp Black
Where Silver Song belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Lamp Black is a Little Greene color. These are both greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within grey to land. Silver Song (LRV 53) reflects noticeably more light than Lamp Black (LRV 3), a difference of 51 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Silver Song runs yellow while Lamp Black is decidedly purple, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 60.2, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
