Roseate vs Touching White
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Hue-wise, Roseate belongs to the beige family and Touching White to the beige-white family. Roseate (LRV 81) reflects noticeably more light than Touching White (LRV 78), a difference of 3 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. At ΔE 1.4, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room.
