Notre Dame

5006-1B

Notre Dame is a muted warm gray that has a slight khaki-beige undertone. That khaki undertone helps it sit naturally with wood floors. Use it for halls or bedrooms where cooler grays look too blue against wood floors.

The color can also bridge warm trim and cooler furniture. Pair with black accents for definition. In dim light, it may read closer to stone beige, so sample near the largest fixed surface.
