With an LRV of 42, it adapts easily to any room, serving as a dependable backdrop for living areas and bedrooms. The closest cross-brand match is Dunn-Edwards's Boat Anchor, a near-identical match. MPC's Shipyard Grey is another strong alternative. It pairs beautifully with warm wood tones to offset its coolness, or with silver and chrome for a polished look.
