Tailwind vs RAL 110-1
Tailwind (Tikkurila) and RAL 110-1 (RAL Effect) come from different manufacturers. The 12-point LRV gap — 80 for RAL 110-1 vs 68 for Tailwind — means RAL 110-1 will open up a space more effectively. ΔE 6.9 means they're clearly different, but not dramatically so — they'd pair well in the same room.
Tailwind vs RAL 110-1 Color Comparison
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.

Tailwind vs RAL 110-1 in Real Spaces
Tailwind and RAL 110-1 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 1 room type where both colors have photos.
Kitchen
Kitchens often have the harshest, most revealing light in the house — under-cabinet LEDs and overhead fixtures that strip away subtlety. RAL 110-1 returns significantly more light to the room — in a smaller or darker space, that difference in perceived brightness is hard to miss.
