COLOR | GRAY ON WALLS

We cannot imagine why, but the British have always spelled it, “Grey” while we Yanks spell it, “Gray.” Either way, it is the hottest neutral right now. If you think of Gray as being cold, you would be wrong! Gray is a sophisticated neutral that provides a chic back drop to other colors, if you wish, or as part of a neutral palette.

We can’t think of a color that doesn’t look amazing with Gray. Swap out the pink accents in this room with any other color (imagine it -citron, aqua or orange) and it would be just as pretty!

We must say, don’t forget the importance of the hardware when you are painting! Here the pull is painted to blend with the piece.
