Glidden

Silent Smoke

PPG1025-2

Silent Smoke is a light warm gray with a beige stone undertone. The softness holds. Bedrooms, hallways, or open living areas suit it when a pure gray feels too cold.

On walls, it reads warmer beside blue accents and grayer beside oak floors. A muted white trim with dark metal gives a clean outline. In rooms with little daylight, sample broadly because pale warm grays can go flat.

Silent Smoke in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.

LRV measures how much light a color reflects, from 0 (black) to 100 (pure white). Below about 50 a color needs good lighting to avoid going flat, 60 and up helps brighten a room, and most whites sit above 80.
