With LRVs of 6 and 5, the two reflect almost the same amount of light. At ΔE 5.6 they're clearly different, yet close enough to share a room.
With LRVs of 9 and 6, the two reflect almost the same amount of light. At ΔE 5.8 they're clearly different, yet close enough to share a room.
With LRVs of 7 and 6, the two reflect almost the same amount of light. At ΔE 6.1 they're clearly different, yet close enough to share a room.
Their light reflectance is nearly identical (LRV 8 vs 6), so neither reads brighter in a room. The ΔE 6.8 gap is real but not dramatic — distinct as a choice, harmonious together.
With LRVs of 9 and 6, the two reflect almost the same amount of light. At ΔE 8.9 they're clearly different, yet close enough to share a room.
With LRVs of 9 and 6, the two reflect almost the same amount of light. At ΔE 9.4 they're clearly different, yet close enough to share a room.
