Portsmouth vs Slumber Sloth

Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Portsmouth reads as blue-grey, while Slumber Sloth reads as beige-greige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Slumber Sloth (LRV 56) reflects noticeably more light than Portsmouth (LRV 22), a difference of 34 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Portsmouth runs neutral while Slumber Sloth is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 28.2, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
