About RAL 010 50 40
That difference is noticeable in a room. A dark saturated red recedes and draws attention at the same time — a tension that can feel heavy. At mid lightness that does not arise: the colour is present without weight.
For feature walls, furniture and elements that have to be seen without making the room heavier this is therefore a more favourable position than the same saturation at a lower lightness.
