Bonsai Trunk vs RAL 110-1

Bonsai TrunkBehrvsRAL 110-1RAL EffectΔE 46.3Very different colors

Bonsai Trunk (Behr) and RAL 110-1 (RAL Effect) come from different manufacturers. Bonsai Trunk reads as grey, while RAL 110-1 reads as white — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 65-point LRV gap — 80 for RAL 110-1 vs 15 for Bonsai Trunk — means RAL 110-1 will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 46.3 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

Digital color is approximate. These simulations are generated from the manufacturer's hex values and overlaid on grayscale room photos — your screen's calibration, brightness, and viewing angle all affect how they render. Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
