Crushed Ice vs Guild Grey
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Crushed Ice reads as greige-grey, while Guild Grey reads as grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. They have nearly identical light reflectance values (66 vs 63), so they'll read as similarly Light in most lighting conditions. Crushed Ice runs warm while Guild Grey is decidedly neutral, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. At ΔE 1.2, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room.
