All the SHADES of Grey!
Is grey the new the Beige?
Grey is almost like a colorless color. It is the halfway point between white and black, which makes it the purest neutral. In reality, of course, greys do tend to lean toward one end of the color temperature spectrum or another.{found on maletzdesign}. Being the complete neutral that it is, grey pairs perfectly with almost every other color or color palette. The important thing to consider when working with grey as a space’s primary neutral is the lightness or darkness of the grey itself in relation to the rest of the space.
I've been implementing grey in my colors over the past few months. After adding my swatch color to each room in the house, the color looked completely different in each room! In my living room, the grey turned blue, in another room it looked white, finally in my bedroom it looked like a true grey. Please do not paint grey without painting a swatch on your wall first!
When implementing grey into your home decor, grey makes an excellent color choice for high-ticket and/or statement pieces in a space. Think sofas, cabinetry, concrete, or counter tops. Adding metal and wood makes a a perfect color block for any space in your home.
