RAL 760-M vs Greenhouse
RAL 760-M (RAL Effect) and Greenhouse (Sherwin-Williams) come from different manufacturers. These are both greens, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within green to land. The NaN-point LRV gap — NaN for Greenhouse vs 6 for RAL 760-M — means Greenhouse will open up a space more effectively. ΔE 6.8 means they're clearly different, but not dramatically so — they'd pair well in the same room. Below you'll find 4 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
RAL 760-M vs Greenhouse in Real Spaces
4 real rooms side by side. RAL 760-M and Greenhouse 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
A living room wall sees more varied light than almost any other surface in the house, which makes the choice between these two more nuanced than a chip suggests. The distinction reads clearly at room scale, making the choice between them concrete.
Bedroom
Bedrooms are typically lit with warmer, lower light than the rest of the house — a condition that flatters warm tones and deepens cool ones. At this scale, the choice between them becomes clear in a way that a swatch alone can't communicate.
Bathroom
Small bathrooms intensify color. A shade that seems quiet in a larger room can feel immersive when you're surrounded by it on four walls. At this scale, the choice between them becomes clear in a way that a swatch alone can't communicate.
House
A full exterior is the most demanding test for a paint color — scale and outdoor light both amplify differences that seem small on a swatch. At this scale, the choice between them becomes clear in a way that a swatch alone can't communicate.

RAL 760-M vs Greenhouse Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see RAL 760-M on one side and Greenhouse on the other.
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.
