We receive many, many questions regarding grays. One of the most frequently asked is how to difference between warm and cool grays, and their respective influence on a space.
Cool grays will have a blue, purple and green undertone, while warm grays will have a yellow, red, or brown undertone to them.
If you paint an area in your home a cool gray, like French Silver PPU18-05, you’ll give your space a more light, airy and relaxed feeling. Warm grays, such Chic Gray PPU26-10 are the perfect background for a cozy, earthy, and sophisticated feel.

hello, I am looking for any light gray shade to match the Behr Ultra White on the ceiling. Hopefully Ultra White with 20% black in it. What color do you suggest?
Hello Farzana, thank you for reaching out!
We recommend Chic Gray PPU26-10. It is a lighter gray tone which you are looking for and it will work with Ultra Pure White.
Hope this helps!

I have cream/yellow tile throughout living area and kitchen. The room also has western exposure in Florida. I really do not want to highlight the yellow color. My kitchen cabinets and furniture are espresso. I am looking for a silver Gray color. Have tried many samples. Totally confused. Don’t know if I should be looking at warm or cool grays. What colors would you recommend?
