Silvery grey -- is there such a thing? Sign In/Join 
posted
Right now I have BM Sidewalk Gray which I like but it tends to darken the room on a cloudy day. Even on a sunny day it doesn't have that sparkle.
I am willing to paint again if someone can suggest a light grey that is a more cool silver that would make the room brighter.
Is there such a thing?
My headboard wall is aubergine and I have 5 gray beams on the ceiling.
Comforter is aubergine and gray. There are mint touches here and there in accessories and chair and ottoman. Furniture is white, carpet is silver grey.
Thanks for any suggestions.

Possibly Horizon by Benjamin Moore may work for you. Another one off the top of my head is the Silver Sage pallet from Restoration Hardware as depending on the amount of light in your space, it can go from a gray, blue to green and with touches of mint, it may go nicely together.

Happy painting!

Yes, there is a silvery gray. there is every kind of color you could possibly think of. Just talk to your local paint dealer. I like Benjamin Moore.
