Cocoa Whip vs Curio Gray
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Cocoa Whip reads as beige-greige, while Curio Gray reads as greige-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. They have nearly identical light reflectance values (28 vs 26), so they'll read as similarly Medium in most lighting conditions. Both lean warm, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. At ΔE 2.8, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room.
