Rich Coral vs RAL 390-M

Rich CoralBenjamin MoorevsRAL 390-MRAL EffectΔE 8.6Noticeable difference

Rich Coral (Benjamin Moore) and RAL 390-M (RAL Effect) come from different manufacturers. Hue-wise, Rich Coral belongs to the pink-red family and RAL 390-M to the beige-pink family. The 5-point LRV gap — 24 for Rich Coral vs 20 for RAL 390-M — means Rich Coral will open up a space more effectively. ΔE 8.6 means they're clearly different, but not dramatically so — they'd pair well in the same room. Below you'll find 2 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.

Rich Coral vs RAL 390-M in Real Spaces

2 real rooms side by side. Rich Coral and RAL 390-M 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

A living room wall sees more varied light than almost any other surface in the house, which makes the choice between these two more nuanced than a chip suggests. Rich Coral reads slightly lighter here — a subtle but real difference in how open the space feels.

Bedroom

Bedrooms are typically lit with warmer, lower light than the rest of the house — a condition that flatters warm tones and deepens cool ones. Rich Coral has the edge in reflectance, which shows as a quiet sense of added space rather than an obvious contrast.

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.
