Their light reflectance is nearly identical (LRV 52 vs 51), so neither reads brighter in a room. A ΔE of 0.7 means the difference barely reads in a finished room.
With LRVs of 53 and 52, the two reflect almost the same amount of light. At ΔE 0.9 you'd need them side by side to tell them apart.
With LRVs of 52 and 51, the two reflect almost the same amount of light. At ΔE 0.9 you'd need them side by side to tell them apart.
With LRVs of 52 and 51, the two reflect almost the same amount of light. At ΔE 1.5 you'd need them side by side to tell them apart.
Their light reflectance is nearly identical (LRV 53 vs 52), so neither reads brighter in a room. A ΔE of 1.7 means the difference barely reads in a finished room.
With LRVs of 53 and 52, the two reflect almost the same amount of light. At ΔE 1.8 you'd need them side by side to tell them apart.
Their light reflectance is nearly identical (LRV 52 vs 50), so neither reads brighter in a room. A ΔE of 1.9 means the difference barely reads in a finished room.
Graceful Green reflects far more light (LRV 70 vs 52), opening up a space where Metropolis encloses it. At ΔE 2.0 you'd need them side by side to tell them apart.
Their light reflectance is nearly identical (LRV 53 vs 52), so neither reads brighter in a room. A ΔE of 2.0 means the difference barely reads in a finished room.
With LRVs of 52 and 49, the two reflect almost the same amount of light. At ΔE 2.1 you'd need them side by side to tell them apart.
With LRVs of 52 and 50, the two reflect almost the same amount of light. At ΔE 2.5 you'd need them side by side to tell them apart.
A 7-point LRV gap (58 vs 52) makes Light grey the marginally brighter of the two. The ΔE 3.3 gap is real but not dramatic — distinct as a choice, harmonious together.
With LRVs of 54 and 52, the two reflect almost the same amount of light. At ΔE 3.5 they're clearly different, yet close enough to share a room.
Their light reflectance is nearly identical (LRV 54 vs 52), so neither reads brighter in a room. The ΔE 4.2 gap is real but not dramatic — distinct as a choice, harmonious together.
