It is a greige, or a warm gray, on the light to medium tone and looks wonderful in any light and with any wood tone. It pops beautifully against white trim. Give it a try. I plan to repaint my entire open concept home in this color with fresh white trim.<br />Good luck!CBID HOMEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18175058800309664409noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4581801317070648144.post-91134256500058148132013-03-08T14:26:28.387-08:002013-03-08T14:26:28.387-08:00Anonymous (Jan 26)

But there are some grays that go very well with gold and tan as an accent. In fact most of them do, because the cooler tones of the grays really make the warm tones look their best. Try a medium gray - Woodcliff Lake (Benjamin Moore), Sparrow (another medium gray) or Gray Cashmere (lighter gray) with warm tan and gold and yellow accents. On the other hand, there are some perfectly lovely tans and golds - don't feel you have to go gray if your true love isn't there.

I also like a nice silvery blue gray - Silver Fox by Benjamin Moore. All are lighter - so try some on the walls to see how it works in that north light.

Looking for a neutral that would go throughout an open concept home, once I have the base I'm confident the accents will come to me; my biggest problem is the natural maple wood work throughout (stair rails and kitchen cabinets). I don't want them to pop as "yellow"...Any suggestions?? Thanks!

What would be the best gray color for a small bedroom that has one small north facing window. The room is pretty dark and I am having no luck at all picking a room color. Since it's such a small room I don't want it to feel cave like. Thanks so much for any advice!gpsnoreply@blogger.com
