Smoked Salmon vs Sundried Tomato
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. These are both pink-reds, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within pink-red to land. Smoked Salmon (LRV 30) reflects noticeably more light than Sundried Tomato (LRV 8), a difference of 22 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Smoked Salmon runs warm while Sundried Tomato is decidedly red, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 29.7, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
