Taste of Summer vs Emperor
Taste of Summer (Cloverdale Paint) and Emperor (Tikkurila) come from different manufacturers. These are both beiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige to land. The 8-point LRV gap — 51 for Taste of Summer vs 43 for Emperor — means Taste of Summer will open up a space more effectively.
