About this color

measured values, not opinion

The kind of neutral that changes name depending on the light, though the teal cast underneath it stays put. 8312, from Vista Paint.

At 3.2 on the chroma scale, this is closer to grey than to color, though the teal cast keeps it from being either. South light flatters it. In a north-facing room it can turn cold, so sample that wall first.

LRV 24.0 - comfortably in the range that suits a whole room rather than one wall. It is the sort of color that goes on every wall of a house without feeling overwhelming.

Behr So Shy makes a good second wall color here - different enough to read as a real choice, close enough to still feel related (about 43 points apart in light reflectance).

Switching brands, Benjamin Moore Georgetown Gray (ES-77) is the closest equivalent at delta-E 1.16, near enough for most rooms. Only 2 other-brand colors land within delta-E 2 of this one, which makes it comparatively unusual. A satin finish is worth it in a room that needs to be wiped down often, at the cost of showing a bit more of the wall's surface than a flat finish would.

It is lighter than 23 percent of the Vista Paint range. Vista Paint lists it in the K codes, alongside 1,318 other colors.
