What color is Midnight Magic? It's a dark neutral gray with the hex code #46474A. Colors similar to Midnight Magic include Hirshfield's Midnight Magic, Valspar Noir, Farrow & Ball Railings. Midnight Magic has a neutral undertone, which affects how it pairs with trim, flooring, and adjacent wall colors. With an LRV of 6, Midnight Magic creates a dramatic, enveloping mood — best on accent walls, dining rooms, and intimate spaces where atmosphere matters more than reflected light. Midnight Magic is a true neutral — pair with any wood, any metal, any trim color. Off-white trim works in most homes; brushed nickel or matte black hardware both read well across spaces.
