Bright · Optimistic

March Green brings light into spaces that lack it — kitchens, breakfast nooks, kids' rooms wake up under it. The trick with yellow is restraint: lean toward the muted/buttery end if you want it on walls; reserve high-chroma versions for accents and trim.

What is a RAL color?

RAL is the European color-matching standard used to specify exact colors for paints and coatings. Each code — like RAL 100 80 80 from the RAL Design System — maps to one defined color, so a manufacturer or painter anywhere produces the identical result. It's used first and foremost on window frames, doors, façades, gates, railings and powder-coated metalwork.
