Sterling vs Whisper

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Both sit in the grey family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. Whisper (LRV 66) reflects noticeably more light than Sterling (LRV 62), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Sterling runs green while Whisper is decidedly yellow, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. At ΔE 2.0, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room.
