Objective vs Silk Grey
Objective (Jotun) and Silk Grey (RAL Classic) come from different manufacturers. Objective reads as greige-grey, while Silk Grey reads as grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 3-point LRV gap — 50 for Objective vs 47 for Silk Grey — means Objective will open up a space more effectively. ΔE 3.0 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.
Objective vs Silk Grey in Real Spaces
2 real rooms side by side. Objective and Silk Grey 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.
Dining Room
Dining rooms often rely on warm incandescent or candlelight, which flatters warm undertones and mutes cool ones. Side by side like this, the difference is easy to read — which is exactly why seeing them in a real space is more useful than comparing chips.
Kitchen Cabinets
Cabinet color is always seen in context — against countertops, backsplash, and hardware — which amplifies undertone differences that might disappear on a plain wall. At this scale, the choice between them becomes clear in a way that a swatch alone can't communicate.

Objective vs Silk Grey Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Objective on one side and Silk Grey 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.
