Travertine PathCloverdale PaintvsRAL 770-2RAL EffectΔE 5.2Noticeable difference

Travertine Path vs RAL 770-2 in Real Spaces

4 real rooms side by side. Travertine Path and RAL 770-2 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 brightness difference is modest but present — Travertine Path gives the walls a little more lift.

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.
