Winter Solstice vs S 2005-G10Y
Where Winter Solstice belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, S 2005-G10Y is a NCS color. Winter Solstice reads as grey, while S 2005-G10Y reads as green-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. S 2005-G10Y (LRV 53) reflects noticeably more light than Winter Solstice (LRV 51), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Winter Solstice runs green and blue while S 2005-G10Y is decidedly neutral, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 4.0 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
