After the Storm vs Momentum
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Hue-wise, After the Storm belongs to the blue-grey family and Momentum to the beige family. Momentum (LRV 8) reflects noticeably more light than After the Storm (LRV 3), a difference of 5 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. After the Storm runs cool while Momentum is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 30.0, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
