RAL 110-2 vs S 0502-Y Color Comparison
Digital color is approximate.

RAL 110-2 vs S 0502-Y in Real Spaces
RAL 110-2 and S 0502-Y are close enough that the difference can be hard to judge from a chip alone. These real-room photos show how each reads at scale, across different spaces and lighting conditions. Showing 3 room types where both colors have photos.
Living Room
In a living room, color works across both daylight and evening light — the same wall can read very differently at noon and at 8pm. The LRV gap is large enough that S 0502-Y will make the room feel meaningfully brighter than RAL 110-2 would.
Kitchen
In a kitchen, colors are seen under bright task lighting that amplifies undertones — what reads neutral elsewhere can show its hand here. S 0502-Y reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than RAL 110-2.
House
Seen across an entire facade, subtle tonal differences become pronounced. What reads as nearly the same on a chip often reads as clearly different at scale. S 0502-Y reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than RAL 110-2.
