Claystone vs S 2005-Y20R
Claystone 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 60 vs 55, Claystone will read as the brighter of the two — a 5-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. At ΔE 3.2, the difference is perceptible but not dramatic — the two can work harmoniously in the same space.
