RAL 330 85 10
Whisper Thyme
RAL 330 85 10 Whisper Thyme occupies hue 330, lightness 85, and a gentle chroma of 10, yielding a soft pale warm olive that warms light surfaces with the delicate atmospheric colour of dried thyme held to the light. It is a go-to specification for nursery interiors, bridal boutique walls, and pastel-forward colour schemes in residential design. The high lightness and restrained chroma make it a versatile backdrop that pairs with both warm and cool accent colours.
