Narrow Lane vs Thimble Case
Both from Dulux's palette. These are both greige-greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within greige-grey to land. Thimble Case (LRV 68) reflects noticeably more light than Narrow Lane (LRV 41), a difference of 27 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean warm, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. With a ΔE of 15.4, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
