Description
Warm Grey 2 – Microcement in Warm Grey
A bit more character, yet still warm
Grey with more punch
Warm Grey 2 has just a bit more colour and depth than Warm Grey 1. It remains a warm, inviting grey tone with extra personality. Exactly right for those who don't want too light, but do seek a calm base.
WG2 feels homely and modern at the same time. The warm undertones prevent the cold feeling that can arise with standard grey. This makes the space look representative without becoming cool.
Styling tip: combine WG2 with light wood species (oak/ash), soft white and sand tones. A brass accent adds a touch of boutique hotel.
