Spring Morning vs Straw Hat
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Spring Morning belongs to the beige-yellow family and Straw Hat to the beige family. Spring Morning (LRV 60) reflects noticeably more light than Straw Hat (LRV 57), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Spring Morning runs yellow while Straw Hat is decidedly red, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 3.2 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
