RAL 120 60 15

Soft Horizon

RAL 120 60 15 Soft Horizon sits at hue 120, lightness 60, and chroma 15, a warm gentle cyan with the comforting appeal of a hazy coastal horizon and shallow bay waters. It brings approachable freshness to hospitality interior schemes, organic brand packaging elements, and residential living room feature walls. The moderate chroma at mid-high lightness creates a colour that is oceanic yet easy to coordinate with neutral palettes.
