Brown Sugar vs RAL 840-M
Brown Sugar (Benjamin Moore) and RAL 840-M (RAL Effect) come from different manufacturers. Hue-wise, Brown Sugar belongs to the greige-grey family and RAL 840-M to the grey family. Their light reflectance values are nearly the same — 8 vs 6 — so neither will read significantly brighter or darker than the other. ΔE 5.1 means they're clearly different, but not dramatically so — they'd pair well in the same room. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

Brown Sugar vs RAL 840-M Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Brown Sugar on one side and RAL 840-M 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.
