S 1000-N vs Grey Blue
S 1000-N (NCS) and Grey Blue (RAL Classic) come from different manufacturers. The 66-point LRV gap — 74 for S 1000-N vs 7 for Grey Blue — means S 1000-N will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 57.3 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.
S 1000-N vs Grey Blue Color Comparison
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.
