Mountain Air (LRV 73) reflects noticeably more light than Red Clover (LRV 27), a difference of 46 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean cool, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. With a ΔE of 40.9, the contrast is hard to miss.
