Basalt grey vs Grey Blue
Both from RAL Classic's palette. Basalt grey (LRV 14) reflects noticeably more light than Grey Blue (LRV 7), a difference of 7 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 9.0 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
Basalt grey 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.
