HammockLittle GreenevsRAL 140-6RAL EffectΔE 3.5Noticeable difference

Hammock (Little Greene) and RAL 140-6 (RAL Effect) come from different manufacturers. Both sit in the beige family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. The 6-point LRV gap — 66 for RAL 140-6 vs 60 for Hammock — means RAL 140-6 will open up a space more effectively. ΔE 3.5 means they're clearly different, but not dramatically so — they'd pair well in the same room. Below you'll find 1 real-room photo comparison where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.

Hammock vs RAL 140-6 in Real Spaces

1 real room side by side. Hammock and RAL 140-6 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.

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. RAL 140-6 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.
