Forever Grey vs RAL 110-2 in Real Spaces
4 real rooms side by side. Forever Grey 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 Forever Grey would.
Bedroom

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 Forever Grey.
Bathroom
