Fashionable Gray vs Imagine
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Both sit in the grey family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. They have nearly identical light reflectance values (49 vs 48), so they'll read as similarly Medium in most lighting conditions. Fashionable Gray runs neutral while Imagine is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. At ΔE 2.7, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room.
