Adagio vs Black grey
Adagio (Benjamin Moore) and Black grey (RAL Classic) come from different manufacturers. Hue-wise, Adagio belongs to the grey family and Black grey to the blue-grey family. The 33-point LRV gap — 39 for Adagio vs 6 for Black grey — means Adagio will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 47.7 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.
