RAL 760-2 vs Bonsai Tint in Real Spaces
4 real rooms side by side. RAL 760-2 and Bonsai Tint are close enough that the difference can be hard to judge from a chip alone — these photos show how each reads at scale, across different spaces and lighting conditions.
Living Room
Living rooms test a color across a full range of conditions — morning sun, afternoon shade, and evening lamp light all shift how both of these read. Bonsai Tint has the edge in reflectance, which shows as a quiet sense of added space rather than an obvious contrast.
Bedroom
Bedroom walls are often seen under warm artificial light, a context that shifts both colors from how they look on a chip. The brightness difference is modest but present — Bonsai Tint gives the walls a little more lift.
Bathroom
