Green Grove vs RAL 850-6

Green GroveBenjamin MoorevsRAL 850-6RAL EffectΔE 6.3Noticeable difference

Green Grove (Benjamin Moore) and RAL 850-6 (RAL Effect) come from different manufacturers. Hue-wise, Green Grove belongs to the green-greige family and RAL 850-6 to the grey family. Their light reflectance values are nearly the same — 10 vs 7 — so neither will read significantly brighter or darker than the other. ΔE 6.3 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.

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.
