battleship gray
Warship hull color
Battleship gray is a medium gray with slight blue undertones, named for the color traditionally used to paint naval warships.
The shade helped ships blend with ocean horizons.
Now it describes any similarly dull, utilitarian gray: The office walls were painted battleship gray.
The color suggests institutional blandness or military functionality.
