Cumberland Fog vs Oatmeal
Both from PPG's palette. Cumberland Fog reads as blue-grey, while Oatmeal reads as beige-greige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Oatmeal (LRV 76) reflects noticeably more light than Cumberland Fog (LRV 71), a difference of 5 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 9.4 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
