Gray Flannel Suit

T695

Gray Flannel Suit is a deep gray-green with a tailored, wool-like feel. It is subdued. Use it on built-ins, interior doors, or a media room wall where soft charcoal makes sense.

The green undertone keeps it warmer than blue-gray. Dark metal suits it. Cream trim keeps the gray from feeling cold. On all four walls, plan for lamps. The color needs light to show its nuance.

Gray Flannel Suit 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.
