We're building a production home in Raleigh. The builder offered three upgraded colors including City Loft. We saw it in the model home and in some homes that were being built. I liked it's neutral feel and I was almost swayed to choose it which would have been a departure from previous homes.

Ultimately it was too gray and cool for our palette (all antiques in varying shades of wood grain) and we're facing south.

I can see how it could be a good neutral without leaning too far into beige which seems to be what a lot of people are going for. We opted for Kilim Beige which turns out wasn't a builder option but because it was in the design center catalog and we worked our choices around it we made them honor our choice.

Good choice that’s a pretty one too! It’s always so hard to choose. City loft is perfect for our palette and lighting (west facing which is so tricky). I really like seeing how it changes in different rooms throughout the day.
