Happy Trails vs Spice Cookie

Both from PPG's palette. These are both beiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige to land. Spice Cookie (LRV 74) reflects noticeably more light than Happy Trails (LRV 47), a difference of 27 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. With a ΔE of 17.0, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
