Adriatic Sea vs RAL 650-6
Where Adriatic Sea belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, RAL 650-6 is a RAL Effect color. These are both blues, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within blue to land. Adriatic Sea (LRV 8) reflects noticeably more light than RAL 650-6 (LRV 5), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. At ΔE 2.2, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room. 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.
