Birthday Cake vs Ostrich Feather
Both from PPG's palette. Birthday Cake reads as pink-red, while Ostrich Feather reads as beige-greige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Birthday Cake (LRV 67) reflects noticeably more light than Ostrich Feather (LRV 57), a difference of 10 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 9.3 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
