RAL 310 85 05

Whisper Moss

RAL 310 85 05 Whisper Moss is positioned at hue 310, lightness 85, and a minimal chroma of 05, an ultra-subtle green-yellow tone that reads almost as a cool white with the faintest moss tint. It is specified for luxury bathroom surfaces, gallery walls requiring a hint of botanical freshness, and high-end residential ceilings. This near-neutral moss adds organic softness to a space without introducing obvious colour.
