#a8a9a8 - Elephant in the Room color
This muted mid-grey reads as a soft, neutral stone tone with a barely perceptible cool-green undertone. It feels calm and understated, neither stark nor warm, ideal for minimalist interiors, user interfaces, or backgrounds that require subtle depth without drawing attention. Paired with crisp white or deep charcoal it creates elegant contrast; with pastels it tempers brightness. Its gentle neutrality supports readable text when combined with darker accents and conveys quiet sophistication and modern restraint.
