Quiet Backgrounds: How ktCOLOR's Gray Shades Highlight Your Designs

Mid-range grays create muted, shadowed backgrounds that heighten the appeal of brighter and more colorful objects in their vicinity. The natural gray shades from ktCOLOR do more than this: made from premium natural pigments, they offer a richness and texture that synthetic grays from standard mixing machines simply cannot match. The elegant, timeless and velvety ktCOLOR grays are perfect for creating subtle, stylish, and understated backgrounds.

Eyes tire if they have to linger too long on a completely white background. Eyes are over-stimulated by too much light and minds are bored by a lack of variation. Environments with alternating light and dark spaces improve the inhabitants’ sense of wellbeing. Eyes can shift to darker surfaces to seek rest, and the mind maintains a relaxed state of awareness. Gentle grays such as this one create spaces that should not be too brightly illuminated to be both elegant and restful.
