Recommend Your Favorite Gray

Anonymous
For a bedroom. Everything I've tested (and I've sampled a TON) seems too pale or too dark. Need a medium gray with blue or brown undertones. TIA! BM or SW preferred.

What have you already sampled?

I like BM Stonington Gray.

I also like Revere pewter, but i think Stonington Gray is better for a bedroom.

Revere Pewter is very versatile. BM. Has warm undertones, without being too yellow.

Certainly not Vincent!

SW Earl Grey

Also--I find it goes well with SW Breezy as well as SW Mediterranean, both are blues

Benjamin Moore Stonington Gray or Antique Pewter for something more dramatic but not too dark

Friends just used BM Stonington Gray in their new condo. Looks great!

I have Revere Pewter in a bathroom and it has a brownish-green undertone.

BM Stonington Gray would be pretty in a bedroom. SW Collonade Gray is similar but with a brown undertone. SW Tinsmith is bluer.

Check out this link and scroll down - she separates out grays by their undertone:

Or a bit lighter in tone: BM Beacon Grey

Probably darker than you want to go, but if you have a well-lit bedroom I would go for Down Pipe.
