Grey is my new favorite colour for home decor!
The endless options of how to use this colour
in terms of decorating style, to create a mood,
as a backdrop or a focal point,
are what make it so appealing for design aficionados
Here's 10 reasons that I love it.

Here's 10 reasons that I love it.

This soft grey paneled wall is a backdrop to showcase a fantastic staircase
GREY IS CLASSIC
Brass cabinet hardware adds warmth to these dark grey cabinets |
GREY IS WARM
luxurious texture makes this bedroom so inviting...
shag rug, velvet ottoman, mohair bedding, grass cloth wall paper
all add to the feeling of warmth calling you in.

GREY IS COOL
This modern space works for a warm climate,
but it would be sad in the winter in Canada!
A green plant or wooden side table would warm it up a lot.
GREY IS FORGIVING
The perfect colour for flooring in natural stone tile, wood or concrete
GREY IS ARTISTIC
Grey is the second most recommended wall colour
(only behind white) for clients with a vast art collection

GREY IS MASCULINE
An almost black shade makes this tall space also dark and handsome,
the perfect backdrop for caramel leather and quirky accessories

GREY IS FEMININE
The opposite effect happens when a soft grey is used along with lovely trim and millwork, creating a pretty space that feels serene
GREY IS GLAMOROUS
If there was any doubt that grey can be glam, this spectacular dining room demonstrates that the right sheen and texture makes all the difference.

GREY IS RUSTIC
Any other colour on the fireplace tile would not have blended so well and may have taken away from the real feature of the room, the massive beams above.

I could go on and on.....
but you get it.
If in doubt about how to get started with your design scheme,
get into a grey area and something wonderful is sure to happen!
