IndigoBenjamin MoorevsRAL 110-2RAL EffectΔE 19.3Distinct difference

Where Indigo belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, RAL 110-2 is a RAL Effect color. Indigo reads as blue, while RAL 110-2 reads as greige-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. RAL 110-2 (LRV 72) reflects noticeably more light than Indigo (LRV 57), a difference of 15 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. With a ΔE of 19.3, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question. 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.
