With LRVs of 70 and 70, the two reflect almost the same amount of light. At ΔE 0.7 you'd need them side by side to tell them apart.
Their light reflectance is nearly identical (LRV 70 vs 70), so neither reads brighter in a room. A ΔE of 0.9 means the difference barely reads in a finished room.
With LRVs of 70 and 70, the two reflect almost the same amount of light. At ΔE 2.6 you'd need them side by side to tell them apart.
Their light reflectance is nearly identical (LRV 70 vs 69), so neither reads brighter in a room. The ΔE 3.3 gap is real but not dramatic — distinct as a choice, harmonious together.
Butter reads slightly lighter (LRV 70 vs 66), a gap that shows most in low-lit rooms. At ΔE 3.6 they're clearly different, yet close enough to share a room.
With LRVs of 72 and 70, the two reflect almost the same amount of light. At ΔE 4.6 they're clearly different, yet close enough to share a room.
A 5-point LRV gap (70 vs 65) makes Butter the marginally brighter of the two. The ΔE 4.7 gap is real but not dramatic — distinct as a choice, harmonious together.
Their light reflectance is nearly identical (LRV 70 vs 70), so neither reads brighter in a room. The ΔE 6.4 gap is real but not dramatic — distinct as a choice, harmonious together.
Their light reflectance is nearly identical (LRV 70 vs 70), so neither reads brighter in a room. A ΔE of 15.0 puts them firmly in different territory — a strong contrast if combined.
