What does the color "sto 16024, HB 81, C1" mean? Correction of wrong decision.

So for most of us men, almost every shade between sun yellow and crap brown is classified as beige:P

I think it is at least more yellow than beige. What do the other forum members say?

Isn't the designation actually irrelevant as long as you like it? :) To make the confusion complete: I have two monitors that I can't get to match (the graphic designer would cry, but I've come to terms with it) and on one it looks yellowish to slightly orange, on the other almost green (oops) Beige is also somewhere in that range... when I google it and look at the pictures, I wonder what all is called beige (some are almost greenish (and that on my better monitor ;) and also according to HSV color values) – that wasn't my first association with beige).

Again, you will only be able to assess the shade once it is on your house wall. No matter how many samples you look at.

In my case, I chose a similar tone, but every wall looked different. And that was different at every time of day. In the morning sun it was too bright, at dusk too dark. The lighting has an immense effect.

If you want to know for sure, have a plaster base and a bucket in the desired color delivered and try it out on different sides of the house.

I had ordered colored plaster, not Sto but Baumit. The house was finished. Months later, the outbuilding was next.
That was in autumn last year. I started and 5 meters away was the house wall. Completely different shade. Clearly lighter.
Same plaster base, same color, same plaster. Took photos and went to the building materials dealer the next day. I wanted to complain. It was totally obvious.

The dealer said everything was from one batch and there would be no complaint. Hm. I then had to continue plastering.
Took photos, racked my brains, it can’t be and who knows what.

After 2 days everything was completely dry and as if by magic, the color had actually darkened and reached the same shade as on the house. Aside from the fact that I had completely made a fool of myself with my dealer, everything turned out well.

I was recently in the new development area. Took a look at the exterior plaster there. Rarely seen such poor quality. Spotty paint, wavy base coat, not properly smoothed or waited too long. I wouldn’t have accepted it like that. Unfortunately, no photos taken.
The quality delivered there defies all description.

I suspect that you want to go a bit in my direction? For me, it is sto 31408... I really like it in combination with the base and roof plus bicolor windows, and it is not dull gray but also not pinkish.

For me, it was like this: I chose a similar tone, but every wall looked different. And that changed again at every time of day.

This is due to the angle of the light incidence and the orientation.
The same tile on the floor always looks different than on the wall.
The color looks completely different on a 50m3 wall than on a paint sample.
Having houses shown through sales is the best method.

The same tile on the floor always looks different than on the wall.

Just like white walls in a room show countless shades of gray on every wall and corner. And when the woman with the red coat leans against the wall, we even have pink ;) That must be the right one. It is not the toxic one with the higher green content, but a nice light yellow :)
