I’m looking at SW swatches and the names of some of these colors crack me up.

We used Benjamin Moore - Revere Pewter on the walls, and Dove white on the trim. Pretty versatile combo.

Sherwin Williams:

Morning Fog
Lazy Grey
Serious Grey

All are greys. No tint of any other color.

I know every one of these colors. Man I’m ghey??. All designers are using cool colors right now (whites and grays). Repose Gray is pretty popular right now. For those that want a little warmth perfect griege is popular. For whites I like pearly white. Greyhound is a great color for office or boys room.

Gonna go watch Hallmark Christmas movies now

As people have said, grays are in. Sherwin Williams light french gray is a good choice.

You do you boo. Don't worry about what the newer homes are doing. You go with what tickles your fancy.

Good choice. As is white dove and repose gray. Others: revere pewter, duck white, alabaster and Stonington gray. If you want darker or black look at tricorn or vulcanized by P&L.

Just painted my entire house all Sherwin Williams shades of gray. Dorian gray in dining and foyer, repose gray in bedrooms, mindful gray in kitchen and living room. Icy avalanche in bathrooms.

Gets lots of compliments, and I find it pretty calming.

ETA: Benjamin Moore Revere Pewter has been mentioned several times and is a legit color. Had it in my old house.

Second morning fog

It’s a DTM acrylic, would look really nice on a wall.
