If you're like me, you enjoy simplicity when it comes to interior design. In almost every room of my home I have light gray paint on the walls because it is a neutral shade and can be paired with any accent color. In my living room I did just this, and then paired it with decor in other tones. I found that some of the best colors that go with gray are browns and blacks. While you can pair any other shade with gray, I liked browns the most because it tied in a modern design with the already rustic theme that existed in my home. To accentuate the gray paint colors on the walls and ceiling, I chose a crisp shade of white for the built-in cabinets and baseboards throughout. This helped to create the clean cut lines that are often found in modern design. Since I loved the deep tones of brown in my wood floors, I wanted to tie that in by staining the ceiling beams the same dark shade. I love how beautifully it stands out against the grays in the rest of the room.
I have my own business that allows me to work from home, so naturally I wanted to create the best office space to work. I am a big fan of gray paint colors because they can be paired with any color accent decor and are popular in modern design. It was hard for me to decide the best shade of paint for my walls, but in the end I chose a light gray so that the room would still feel open and welcoming. I asked around at my local home improvement store and they said that the best gray paint colors were the lighter shades that Behr offers. I found this light shade and it worked out great that it matched the unique design of my desk. I'm really into having cool office decor and this custom made desk is definitely spectacular. To contrast the light gray paint on the walls, I chose a darker shade to paint the built-in cabinets. I love how both the cabinets and wall ties in the shades of the striped marble desktop.
Many customers come to me looking for advice on the best gray paint colors to choose from for their remodel. Whether you are starting from scratch and building a new home, or just wish to give an existing room a facelift, shades of gray are very popular this year. When trying to choose the perfect grey paint colors, you want to keep in mind the size of your room and the other decor around. Lighter shades will keep the space feeling open while darker shades can make a room feel smaller. If you are unsure of having grey on all your walls, you can use it as an accent, like the fireplace in this home. This space has a very open layout between the living area and kitchen, so choosing white paint colors was a great option for these homeowners. It reflects light and creates an illusion of a larger space. They were able to tie in shades of gray through the fireplace, couch, and other room decor to create a beautiful and elegant room.
I wanted to give my bathroom a facelift by changing the paint color on the walls but was unsure of the best shade to choose from. I searched through popular trends for this year and found that gray paint colors are all the rage right now. This was perfect for me since the shower tiles, countertop, and vanity cabinet in my bathroom had various shades of gray. Previously my bathroom was just painted white, but it just felt too boring for me. That's why I chose to go with light gray walls, matching the tones in the marble shower tiles. When trying to find the best shade, I learned that it is best to avoid dark grays in smaller rooms because it makes them feel cramped. I was also considering blue gray paint colors, which are also a very popular design trend this year. This adds a touch of blue to your room, while still remaining a neutral shade of gray. If you have blue accent decor, this can be a great choice to tie in the various shades.
When designing my master bathroom, I really wanted to have a contemporary theme with light grey walls throughout. I didn't want to go with the boring and monotonous white paints that everyone has in their homes, which is why the gray really appealed to me. It worked out perfectly that gray paint colors are trending in modern design this year. I was able to match the paint to the shades of grey in the marble countertops and tile on the floors. Since I wanted to match the shades in my bathroom fixtures, I found samples of the most popular gray paint colors and brought them home with me to find the best shade. After choosing the perfect gray, I wanted to include a dark accentuating shade to use elsewhere in the room. The addition of the black vanity cabinets and the crisp white porcelain soaker tub contrasted the light gray perfectly. I love how beautifully this space turned out.
I have been in search of the best gray paint for bedroom designs and I just love the way that this room was fashioned. I also have tall ceilings in my master bedroom and wasn't quite sure the best shade of grey for the space. I really love how they chose light gray walls with white baseboards and dark wood floors and ceiling beams. The simple color scheme of different shades of gray make the room feel very modern, but also warm and welcoming. I like how they pulled in a rustic theme with the dark stained wooden beams in the ceiling. This is a beautiful accent against the gray. I also love how they incorporated deeper shades in the bedding and curtains to accentuate the gray paint colors on the walls. I'm so glad that I found the perfect inspiration for my new master bedroom design. I am going to make a trip to my local paint store to get started on my remodel today.
