Stone vs White Dove
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Stone reads as grey, while White Dove reads as beige-greige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. White Dove (LRV 83) reflects noticeably more light than Stone (LRV 24), a difference of 60 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Stone runs red while White Dove is decidedly yellow, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 40.1, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
