Alabaster vs RAL 110-1
Alabaster (Benjamin Moore) and RAL 110-1 (RAL Effect) come from different manufacturers. Hue-wise, Alabaster belongs to the beige-greige family and RAL 110-1 to the white family. The 6-point LRV gap — 85 for Alabaster vs 80 for RAL 110-1 — means Alabaster will open up a space more effectively. ΔE 4.5 means they're clearly different, but not dramatically so — they'd pair well in the same room. Below you'll find 3 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Alabaster vs RAL 110-1 in Real Spaces
3 real rooms side by side. Alabaster and RAL 110-1 are close enough that the difference can be hard to judge from a chip alone — these photos show how each reads at scale, across different spaces and lighting conditions.
Living Room
A living room wall sees more varied light than almost any other surface in the house, which makes the choice between these two more nuanced than a chip suggests. Alabaster reads slightly lighter here — a subtle but real difference in how open the space feels.
Bedroom
Bedrooms are typically lit with warmer, lower light than the rest of the house — a condition that flatters warm tones and deepens cool ones. Alabaster has the edge in reflectance, which shows as a quiet sense of added space rather than an obvious contrast.
House
A full exterior is the most demanding test for a paint color — scale and outdoor light both amplify differences that seem small on a swatch. Alabaster has the edge in reflectance, which shows as a quiet sense of added space rather than an obvious contrast.

Alabaster vs RAL 110-1 Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Alabaster on one side and RAL 110-1 on the other.
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.
