Stately Graystone

V118-2

Stately Graystone is a medium gray with a warm stone undertone. The warm gray body suits high-traffic halls with wood trim nearby. Use it for hallways, offices, or exterior siding where a cooler gray would feel too blue.

The color gains depth in shaded rooms and looks cleaner in daylight. Pair with white trim and natural wood. Cream accents make it warmer. Check it beside concrete or tile, since similar grays can either harmonize or look mismatched.

Stately Graystone 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.
