A deep, muted warm gray, Southern carries neutral undertones and a distinctly inviting presence. With an LRV of 29, it grounds a space with quiet intensity, working beautifully in dens, master bedrooms, and formal dining rooms. The closest cross-brand match is Behr's Cavalry Brown, a near-identical match. Vista Paint's Norwegian Wood is another strong alternative.
