Jerry Dark Gray
Jerry Gris Fonce is a concrete-look wallpaper in a deep gray. The design copies the surface of poured concrete, with uneven mottling, faint clouding and the kind of tonal shifts you see on a cast wall. There is no repeating motif to pick out, so the pattern reads as one continuous surface rather than a print, and seams are easy to lose in the variation.
Pattern and shade
The gray sits at the dark end of the range, closer to anthracite than to a mid tone, and it shifts slightly depending on how much daylight reaches the wall. Under lamps the lighter patches in the concrete pattern come forward; in flat daylight the whole wall reads more evenly. Because the shade is a neutral, it takes on a little warmth or coolness from whatever is around it, including wood, brick and painted trim. Other options in the same tonal family are gathered under dark gray. These are premium quality wallpapers.
Style and rooms
The look belongs to minimalist schemes, where the wall is meant to be a backdrop and not the focus. It goes with black metal fittings, glass, leather and plain textiles, and it gives colored furniture or artwork a quiet ground to sit against. A dark wall also pulls in the depth of a large room, which can make a wide space feel more contained.
- Living room walls, including behind a sofa
- Bedrooms and dining rooms
- Kitchens, hallways and bathrooms
- Home offices, nurseries and kids' rooms
Used on a single accent wall, the dark gray separates a seating or media area from the rest of the room without any trim or paneling. In a home office it keeps the background plain behind shelving and screens, and in a bedroom it works well on the wall behind the headboard.
