White: calm, purity, sterile, blank canvas, modern

White reflects and amplifies all colors. The human eye views white as a brilliant color, so it immediately catches the eye in signage. White is associated with sterility and the medical field, as well as weight loss, low-fat foods, and dairy products

Gray: boredom, neutrality, ashes, conservative, status quo

Gray is the color of indecision and uncertainty. It carries the connotation of lack of strong feeling. In nature gray provides camouflage, for gray wolves, gray elephants and gray whales. It’s also a camouflage in the business world, for gray suit, individuals who wish to remain noncommittal while keeping things status quo. If you don’t want your business to fade into the shadows, consider another color other than gray as the dominate color.
