Both classic and nuanced, Octavius is a deep, warm gray with cool blue undertones. With an LRV of 22, it works as a versatile whole-home neutral for living rooms, bedrooms, and hallways. Hirshfield's offers Octavius as a near-identical match, while Benjamin Moore's Toucan is also very similar. It pairs well with crisp whites for contrast and warm metallics like brass or gold for cohesion.
