#494e4f - Cover of Night color

A deep, muted charcoal with a subtle green-gray undertone, this color reads as cool and grounded rather than stark. It evokes slate or weathered metal kissed by moss, offering sophistication and quiet depth. Versatile and modern, it pairs beautifully with warm woods, soft creams, brass accents, and leather, balancing industrial and organic palettes. Use it as an anchoring neutral for interiors, trim, or branding when you want a calm, elegant presence without harsh contrast.
