Stone Harbor vs RAL 840-1
Stone Harbor is a PPG color while RAL 840-1 comes from RAL Effect. These are both beige-greiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige-greige to land. With LRVs of 75 and 77, they'll behave almost identically in terms of how much light they reflect back into a room. With a ΔE of 2.2, the difference is subtle — you'd need them side by side to reliably tell them apart. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.
