RAL 150 65 15

Pale Hyacinth

RAL 150 65 15 Pale Hyacinth occupies hue 150, lightness 65, and a moderate chroma of 15, a desaturated cool blue that recalls the delicate petals of hyacinth flowers and hazy spring skies. It is a natural fit for Scandinavian-inspired interiors, natural stone colour palettes, and understated residential wall finishes. This pale hyacinth brings subtle floral coolness to neutral schemes without disrupting their calm, muted character.
