What color is RAL Classic Pastel blue?
RAL Classic Pastel blue RAL 5024 is a muted mid-tone blue with a lightly gray cast that keeps it from reading overly bright. Its cool character is clear, though the softened saturation gives it a practical, painted finish rather than a crisp primary-blue look. On broad walls, this shade can bring measured color to bedrooms, bathrooms, or home offices without making the room feel visually busy. It appears cleaner and a little lighter in strong daylight, while lower or warmer lighting can draw out its subdued blue-gray quality. Pair Pastel blue with chalky whites, pale oak, brushed nickel, charcoal details, or soft sand-colored textiles for a grounded interior palette.

LRV of Pastel blue
Pastel blue has an LRV of 28.56% and refers to Medium colors that reflect a lot of light. Why LRV is important?
Light Reflectance Value measures the amount of visible and usable light that reflects from a painted surface.
Simply put, the higher the LRV of a paint color, the brighter the room you will get.
The scale goes from 0% (absolute black, absorbing all light) to 100% (pure white, reflecting all light).
Act like a pro: When choosing paint with an LRV of 28.56%, pay attention to your bulbs' brightness. Light brightness is measured in lumens. The lower the paint's LRV, the higher lumen level you need. Every square foot of room needs at least 40 lumens. That means for a 200 ft2 living room you'll need about 8000 lumens of light – e.g., eight 1000 lm bulbs.
