Subway presents as a light, cool gray with subtle sage undertones and a restful mood. With an LRV of 68, it creates a calm, cohesive feel in open-concept spaces, hallways, and bedrooms alike. For a cross-brand equivalent, Sherwin-Williams's Uncertain Gray is a near-identical match. PPG's Mirror Mirror runs close as well. Balance its cool character with warm neutrals on adjacent surfaces, or embrace the chill with blue-gray accents.
