Gossamer Veil SW 9165 is a neutral greige with cool undertones and an LRV of 62, placing it in the upper-mid reflectance range. It reads as a balanced warm-cool neutral, making it functional for whole-house color schemes, hallways, and open-concept living areas. Repose Gray and Passive work alongside it for subtle tonal shifts between rooms.

Naval and Urbane Bronze introduce contrast at different depths, while Comfort Gray and Anew Gray maintain cohesion when used on adjacent walls or in connected spaces throughout a home.
