Edgecomb Gray vs RAL 110-2 in Real Spaces
6 real rooms side by side. Edgecomb Gray and RAL 110-2 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
In a living room, color works across both daylight and evening light — the same wall can read very differently at noon and at 8pm. The LRV gap is large enough that RAL 110-2 will make the room feel meaningfully brighter than Edgecomb Gray would.
Bedroom
The context that matters most in a bedroom is how a color reads under a bedside lamp at night, not under noon daylight. RAL 110-2 reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Edgecomb Gray.
Kitchen
In a kitchen, colors are seen under bright task lighting that amplifies undertones — what reads neutral elsewhere can show its hand here. RAL 110-2 reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Edgecomb Gray.
Bathroom
Bathrooms are one of the few spaces where you're genuinely enclosed by the paint color, which makes the choice between these two more consequential. RAL 110-2 reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Edgecomb Gray.
House
Seen across an entire facade, subtle tonal differences become pronounced. What reads as nearly the same on a chip often reads as clearly different at scale. RAL 110-2 reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Edgecomb Gray.
Kitchen Cabinets
Kitchen cabinets are constantly compared against adjacent materials, which means subtle differences between these two become much more visible. RAL 110-2 reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Edgecomb Gray.

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.
