Valspar

Gotham City

V117-3

Gotham City is a deep cool gray with a restrained blue-green cast. It feels urban and restrained. Use it on doors, cabinets, or a media room wall when charcoal would be too heavy.

LRV 18 keeps it deep, so strong trim contrast matters. Pair with crisp white or light oak. Low light can flatten it toward industrial gray, so add texture and lamps.
