About this colour

#A9A9A9 reads as a soft, even grey that reflects light without feeling bright. In north-facing rooms it can take on a cooler, more muted look, while in south-facing light it feels a little lighter and more open. Because it sits near the middle of the grey scale, it works well on walls when you want definition without a dark result. In Active Emulsion or Waterbased Eggshell, it is especially useful on woodwork where a restrained, modern grey is needed beside clearer whites, charcoal upholstery, or deeper patterned fabrics.

How to use it

Use Iron Grey in sitting rooms, studies, or hallways where you want a steady neutral that does not pull too warm. It pairs neatly with painted joinery, oak, walnut, and both pale and deep upholstery colours.

A steady mid grey that stays controlled on the wall.

Iron Grey is a wall colour, so these are the cloths that sit against it: one of them on the curtains, the paint behind. Mixed across the houses we hold, which is the part a single supplier's book cannot do.
