Guild Grey vs Solstice

Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Guild Grey reads as grey, while Solstice reads as greige-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Solstice (LRV 69) reflects noticeably more light than Guild Grey (LRV 63), a difference of 6 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Guild Grey runs neutral while Solstice is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. At ΔE 3.0, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room.
