Hammered Silver vs Tiki Hut

Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Hammered Silver reads as greige-grey, while Tiki Hut reads as beige-greige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Hammered Silver (LRV 26) reflects noticeably more light than Tiki Hut (LRV 17), a difference of 9 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean warm, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. With a ΔE of 11.3, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
