Green Sleeves vs RAL 140-M

Their light reflectance values are nearly the same — 33 vs 35 — so neither will read significantly brighter or darker than the other. ΔE 3.5 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.
Green Sleeves vs RAL 140-M in Real Spaces
2 real rooms side by side. Green Sleeves and RAL 140-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.
Kitchen
Kitchens often have the harshest, most revealing light in the house — under-cabinet LEDs and overhead fixtures that strip away subtlety. At this scale, the choice between them becomes clear in a way that a swatch alone can't communicate.
Bathroom
Small bathrooms intensify color. A shade that seems quiet in a larger room can feel immersive when you're surrounded by it on four walls. At this scale, the choice between them becomes clear in a way that a swatch alone can't communicate.

Green Sleeves vs RAL 140-M Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Green Sleeves on one side and RAL 140-M on the other.
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.
