NCS and RAL color trends: The evolution of greige and earthy tones

Color science in interior design

At Suministros Barrero, we work with Blatem paint and wallpaper because precision matters in professional design. Current trends rely on the NCS and RAL systems. These codes make sure the color you pick is exact and creates the right mood. Pure, cold whites aren't as popular anymore. Now, colors that reflect light naturally are leading the way.

Greige and the NCS and RAL codes

Greige is a mix of gray and beige that people often want for living rooms or bedrooms. The NCS S 2005-Y20R code is one of our most requested. It has little black and a yellow-red tint that adds warmth without getting tiring. If you prefer the German chart, RAL 7044 Silk grey is very similar. It is a neutral base that looks great with metal windows and the light we have here on the Costa Brava.

Mediterranean neutrals and earth tones

The Mediterranean and colors that remind us of lime or clay influence us a lot here. NCS S 1005-Y30R is a warm neutral that provides plenty of light. If you want some contrast, RAL 1015 Light ivory works well on facades and moldings. It matches easily with the wallpapers in our catalog.

How to apply Blatem paint and wallpaper

You can make color gradations without mistakes using the RAL DESIGN SYSTEM plus. We recommend matte finishes so the color looks better. A wall in NCS S 3010-Y30R, which is a soft terracotta, looks great with wooden furniture. Using these codes prevents the color from changing strangely depending on the light. At the shop, we prepare Blatem paint with the exact code you ask for.
