Delicate White vs York Ivory

Both from PPG's palette. Delicate White reads as white, while York Ivory reads as beige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Delicate White (LRV 88) reflects noticeably more light than York Ivory (LRV 60), a difference of 28 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. With a ΔE of 25.5, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
