Sharkskin is a light, muted warm gray with balanced undertones that give it a understated quality. With an LRV of 67, it brings warmth without overwhelming a space, well-suited for main living areas and dining rooms. Vista Paint offers Homespun Linen as a near-identical match, while Sherwin-Williams's Gateway Gray is also very similar. Coordinate with warm whites for trim and natural materials like jute and linen for a layered look.
