Gray is the most-recommended neutral in American interiors — the safe choice that anchors a room without committing to a strong color. The "true" grays here lean cool (blue or violet undertone) or stay almost dead-neutral. The warm-leaning grays (taupe, mushroom, greige) live in the Neutral family next door because they read closer to beige than to true gray on the wall.
The most-spec'd gray from Backdrop — the one that anchors most designer roundups in this family.
