# Dulux Gallant Grey

Source: [https://plan-home.com/color/gallant-grey](https://plan-home.com/color/gallant-grey)

Dulux Gallant Grey is a medium-depth grey with a muted, slightly cool cast that reads clean rather than blue. Its #686D70 value gives it enough weight for a feature wall or painted cabinetry, while still feeling usable across a whole room. In bright daylight, the grey appears clearer and more balanced; lower or warmer lighting can bring out its softer, charcoal-like depth. Pair it with crisp off-whites, black metal details, pale oak, or concrete finishes for a restrained modern look. Gallant Grey is particularly effective in kitchens, home offices, hallways, and exterior trim where a grounded neutral is needed.
