Ramie vs White Heron
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Hue-wise, Ramie belongs to the beige family and White Heron to the beige-greige family. White Heron (LRV 76) reflects noticeably more light than Ramie (LRV 52), a difference of 24 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 16.1, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
