Vanilla Ice Cream vs Wet Concrete
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Vanilla Ice Cream belongs to the beige family and Wet Concrete to the grey family. Vanilla Ice Cream (LRV 87) reflects noticeably more light than Wet Concrete (LRV 27), a difference of 59 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Vanilla Ice Cream runs warm while Wet Concrete is decidedly red, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 38.7, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
