RAL 230 60 05

Muted Granite Rose

RAL 230 60 05 Muted Granite Rose occupies hue 230, lightness 60, and a minimal chroma of 05, a near-neutral mid-light tone that barely hints at true red beneath its grey surface, like the blush of pink granite in overcast light. It is a natural choice for heritage structural elements, contemporary office wall surfaces, and natural material colour coordination. The very restrained saturation gives it a timeless, architectural quality that blends seamlessly with natural stone and aged timber.
