Silk Grey vs H481
Where Silk Grey belongs to RAL Classic's range, H481 is a Tikkurila color. Both sit in the grey family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. H481 (LRV 52) reflects noticeably more light than Silk Grey (LRV 47), a difference of 5 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 3.4 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.
