Tabby Cat Gray

V123-2

Tabby Cat Gray comes across as a deep warm gray beige, close to weathered taupe. Its warm taupe body has enough darkness for exterior trim, stair rails, or a shaded bedroom accent. Dens, bedrooms, and exterior schemes can use this grounded neutral when warmth matters.

At LRV 28, it should be treated as deep, not light. Add cream trim, pale upholstery, or warm wood so the color does not feel too dense in shaded areas.
