What color is Dulux Grey Tabby?
Dulux Grey Tabby 00NN 16/000 is a deep, near-charcoal grey with a notably neutral cast rather than obvious blue, brown, or green undertones. It reads like the dark grey of a tabby cat’s stripe: soft-edged and slightly dusty instead of stark black. On full walls it suits rooms with good natural light, while in a north-facing space it can feel heavier and more dramatic. Use it on cabinetry, a study wall, or exterior joinery with warm white trim, pale oak, natural linen, and brass fittings to keep the look grounded. Under warm evening lamps, Grey Tabby tends to soften, pairing particularly well with walnut, textured stone, dark green, and muted terracotta.
LRV of Grey Tabby
Grey Tabby has an LRV of 14.74% and refers to Medium Dark which means that this color reflects very little light. Why LRV is important?
Light Reflectance Value measures the amount of visible and usable light that reflects from a painted surface.
Simply put, the higher the LRV of a paint color, the brighter the room you will get.
The scale goes from 0% (absolute black, absorbing all light) to 100% (pure white, reflecting all light).
Act like a pro: When choosing paint with an LRV of 14.74%, pay attention to your bulbs' brightness. Light brightness is measured in lumens. The lower the paint's LRV, the higher lumen level you need. Every square foot of room needs at least 40 lumens. That means for a 200 ft2 living room you'll need about 8000 lumens of light – e.g., eight 1000 lm bulbs.
