Concrete Jungle

Concrete Jungle is the gray that actually sits on something. It's got weight to it, darker and more saturated than Cathedral or Ashes to Ashes, with enough brown underneath to feel like it's made of something real. This isn't a gray that's trying to disappear; it's a gray that's already been there.

Use this in dense, working interfaces where the background needs to anchor the content without fading into the wall. Product dashboards, data visualization platforms, editorial tools where users spend hours staring at the same screen. Pair it with type and UI elements and it holds them steady. Unlike Ash, which is cooler and more austere, Concrete Jungle has a warmth that doesn't apologize, doesn't require context to feel like it belongs. It works harder than Cathedral because it's not trying to be invisible, it's content-adjacent, not content-hostile.

Put saturated accents against it and they'll read clean and clear. The warmth here actually works with earthy tones, warm blacks, and rust-tinged colors in a way the cooler grays in this family won't. It's the one you reach for when the page itself needs to be present.
