Evening Sky vs Baluster
Evening Sky is a Jotun color while Baluster comes from Little Greene. These are both greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within grey to land. With LRVs of 22 and 23, they'll behave almost identically in terms of how much light they reflect back into a room. The tonal difference — Evening Sky's neutral character against Baluster's red — becomes most visible against white trim or in morning light. With a ΔE of 1.7, the difference is subtle — you'd need them side by side to reliably tell them apart.
