Dynamo vs RAL 380-2

DynamoPPGvsRAL 380-2RAL EffectΔE 19.5Distinct difference

Dynamo is a PPG color while RAL 380-2 comes from RAL Effect. Both sit in the beige family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. With LRVs of 37 and 36, they'll behave almost identically in terms of how much light they reflect back into a room. At ΔE 19.5, these are genuinely distinct colors — a strong contrast if used together, or a meaningful choice between two different directions. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

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.
