A near gray, with almost no warmth. LRV is light reflectance value, the share of light a surface sends back, the same scale paint makers print on every chip: 0 is black, 100 is white.
Amani Marble has a gentle movement from board to board (a spread of 2.1 in L*): calm, but not flat.
The shaded band is within 30 points of the floor. A wall inside it blurs into the floor; BS 8300 asks for at least 30 points between surfaces that meet.

Wood, rugs and metals
Contrast, not a match.
Wood furniture
A step darker: a honey toneAbout 19 points darker than Amani Marble in L* (55 against 74), far enough to read as a choice. Like our Rustic Beige stain sample.
A step lighter: black or painted piecesAmani Marble is lighter than any wood stain we photographed (L* 74), so contrast comes from black, painted or upholstered pieces.
Rugs and fabric
Tone on tone: graphite1 in chroma, half the warmth of Amani Marble (2), and 34 points darker in L*.
Across the wheel: slate blueHue 260°, straight across the color wheel from the 80° of Amani Marble, softened to balance it.
Grounding: storm blueA deep note at L* 44, 30 points from the 74 of Amani Marble, so a rug keeps its edge.
Metals
Polished nickelA bright nickel with a touch of warmth, for the gray undertone of Amani Marble (chroma 2.0).
ChromeThe brightest and coolest finish, crisp against Amani Marble at chroma 2.0.
Matte blackBlack works with every undertone; beside Amani Marble at LRV 46 it gives the room its outline.
What to avoid
The near misses, by the numbers.
- Walls at the lightness of Amani Marble: October Mist (Benjamin Moore 1495, LRV 46.5) sits within a point of its LRV of 46, so wall and floor would blur into one.
- Creamy or yellow whites: beside Amani Marble, a near gray, they look dingy.

How we chose
Paint names, codes, hex and LRV as Sherwin-Williams and Benjamin Moore publish them (each color links to its page).
BS 8300-2:2018 asks for a difference of at least 30 LRV points between adjacent surfaces, such as a floor and a wall, so the surfaces read apart.
The floor measured from its own picture in CIELAB (D65); the wood tones from our own photographs of 37 stains on oak.
A picture's lightness depends a little on how it was lit, so the floor's LRV is read from the evenly lit field the visualizer lays and rounded. See the real floor before you choose paint: visit the showroom, or ask for a free measure and estimate.
