RAL 050 60 15
Soft Flax
RAL 050 60 15 Soft Flax is defined by hue 050, lightness 60, and a low chroma of 15, a desaturated warm neutral that hovers between yellow and warm taupe. It is a natural fit for Scandinavian-inspired interiors, natural fibre colour palettes, and understated residential wall finishes. This soft flax brings subtle golden warmth to neutral schemes without disrupting their calm, muted character.
