Blue VerditerLittle GreenevsRAL 660-1RAL EffectΔE 13.7Distinct difference

Blue Verditer (Little Greene) and RAL 660-1 (RAL Effect) come from different manufacturers. These are both blues, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within blue to land. The 14-point LRV gap — 29 for Blue Verditer vs 15 for RAL 660-1 — means Blue Verditer will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 13.7 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives. Below you'll find 2 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.

Blue Verditer vs RAL 660-1 in Real Spaces

2 real rooms side by side. Seeing Blue Verditer and RAL 660-1 in actual rooms makes the difference concrete; browse the spaces below to get a feel for how each color lives on a wall.

Living Room

A living room wall sees more varied light than almost any other surface in the house, which makes the choice between these two more nuanced than a chip suggests. Blue Verditer reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than RAL 660-1.

Bedroom

Bedrooms are typically lit with warmer, lower light than the rest of the house — a condition that flatters warm tones and deepens cool ones. Blue Verditer returns significantly more light to the room — in a smaller or darker space, that difference in perceived brightness is hard to miss.

Digital color is approximate.

Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
