White PoetryJotunvsRAL 110-2RAL EffectΔE 0.7Imperceptible difference

White Poetry is a Jotun color while RAL 110-2 comes from RAL Effect. Both sit in the greige-grey family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. With LRVs of 73 and 72, they'll behave almost identically in terms of how much light they reflect back into a room. With a ΔE of 0.7, the difference is subtle — you'd need them side by side to reliably tell them apart.

White Poetry vs RAL 110-2 in Real Spaces

2 real rooms side by side. White Poetry 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

Living rooms test a color across a full range of conditions — morning sun, afternoon shade, and evening lamp light all shift how both of these read. In photos like these you're seeing the difference at its most direct. In a finished room, the distinction is there but not dramatic.

Kitchen

Kitchen lighting tends to be bright and directional, which sharpens contrast and makes undertone differences more apparent. The two are close enough that the choice comes down to finer qualities — undertone, texture, what the color sits next to.
