RAL 230 80 15
Cloud Dawn
RAL 230 80 15 Cloud Dawn is defined by hue 230, lightness 80, and chroma 15, a luminous pastel true red that captures the soft glow of dawn clouds and the translucent warmth of rose quartz held to the light. It is specified for children's bedroom walls, event space feature surfaces, and decorative packaging where a gentle, uplifting warmth is desired. The moderate chroma at this light level gives it more presence than a typical pastel while remaining effortlessly soft.
Color Reference
