When it works
Sherwin-Williams Anew Gray (SW 7030) is a warm greige body, Alabaster (SW 7008) handles trim, and Tricorn Black (SW 6258) covers gutters and the door. It works when bright white feels too stark for your setting, such as a lot surrounded by trees or neighbors in earth tones. Greige also hides dust better than white. Undertones can shift beside stone or greenery, so test samples in daylight; screen colors are approximate.
House styles it suits
Modern farmhouse, ranch and contemporary homes fit best. Board-and-batten or lap siding both work, and black lighting fixtures tie into the black accents.
Roof, brick and stone
Black shingles connect the roof to the gutters and door. Pair with warm stone, tan brick or natural wood. Very red brick may compete with black; let stone carry the texture instead.
Sheen and maintenance
Use low-sheen for the body and satin for Alabaster trim. The Tricorn Black door looks best in semi-gloss or gloss. Prefinished black aluminum gutters are easiest; painted gutters need a bonding primer and periodic touch-up.
Questions
Does greige go with black gutters?
Yes. Black gutters trace the roofline and give a warm greige a modern edge, while Alabaster trim keeps the windows light so the house does not feel heavy.
Is Anew Gray too dark for siding?
It is a mid-light greige. On large walls it may read lighter than the chip; test samples.
Can I preview this palette on my home?
Yes. Upload a photo of your house and preview the colors with AI before buying paint.
