Valspar

Gallery Grey

2006-10B

Gallery Grey is a light warm gray beige with a taupe undertone. The taupe base helps it bridge gray and beige finishes. This is a useful neutral for living rooms, entries, or bedrooms that need gray without a blue cast.

Set the walls near warm white trim and medium wood floors. On a full wall, it can look beige beside cool furnishings. In very warm light, the taupe side will show more.

Gallery Grey 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.
