Purple Heart vs RAL 110-1
Where Purple Heart belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, RAL 110-1 is a RAL Effect color. Purple Heart reads as blue-purple, while RAL 110-1 reads as white — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. RAL 110-1 (LRV 80) reflects noticeably more light than Purple Heart (LRV 25), a difference of 55 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. With a ΔE of 44.8, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
