RAL 610-4 vs H356

RAL 610-4RAL EffectvsH356TikkurilaΔE 7.4Noticeable difference

RAL 610-4 is a RAL Effect color while H356 comes from Tikkurila. Both sit in the blue family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. At LRV 51 vs 40, H356 will read as the brighter of the two — a 10-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. At ΔE 7.4, the difference is perceptible but not dramatic — the two can work harmoniously in the same space. 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.
