Cantera vs S 2005-Y20R
Cantera is a Cloverdale Paint color while S 2005-Y20R comes from NCS. These are both beige-greiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige-greige to land. At LRV 58 vs 55, Cantera will read as the brighter of the two — a 4-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. With a ΔE of 1.8, the difference is subtle — you'd need them side by side to reliably tell them apart.
