RAL 240 80 15
Cloud Amber
RAL 240 80 15 Cloud Amber is defined by hue 240, lightness 80, and chroma 15, a luminous pastel red-orange that captures the soft glow of amber-tinted clouds and the translucent warmth of honey calcite 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
