Again, with gray as our neutral we love how easily it complements other colorways. Of course the previously mentioned white pairing is stunning and it also looks fabulous with green. The color green is being celebrated and we are seeing it come alive in so many ways. Sherwin Williams' Color of the Year 2022, Evergreen Fog.
