Polished Concrete vs Snowfall

Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Hue-wise, Polished Concrete belongs to the grey family and Snowfall to the greige-grey family. Snowfall (LRV 73) reflects noticeably more light than Polished Concrete (LRV 32), a difference of 42 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Polished Concrete runs neutral while Snowfall is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 25.7, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
