Brown Horse vs RAL 180-1
Brown Horse is a Benjamin Moore color while RAL 180-1 comes from RAL Effect. Brown Horse reads as beige-greige, while RAL 180-1 reads as blue — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. At LRV 49 vs 12, RAL 180-1 will read as the brighter of the two — a 36-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. At ΔE 40.5, these are genuinely distinct colors — a strong contrast if used together, or a meaningful choice between two different directions.
