Pale Green vs RAL 770-5

Pale GreenJotunvsRAL 770-5RAL EffectΔE 4.8Noticeable difference

Pale Green (Jotun) and RAL 770-5 (RAL Effect) come from different manufacturers. Pale Green reads as green-greige, while RAL 770-5 reads as greige-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 5-point LRV gap — 48 for Pale Green vs 43 for RAL 770-5 — means Pale Green will open up a space more effectively. ΔE 4.8 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.

Pale Green vs RAL 770-5 in Real Spaces

2 real rooms side by side. Pale Green and RAL 770-5 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. Pale Green has the edge in reflectance, which shows as a quiet sense of added space rather than an obvious contrast.

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. Pale Green 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.
