No More Gold as Gray is the Color of Choice
For the past couple decades, gold undertones have been the popular and preferred choice. As people have looked for a fresher look and new optimism, gray is dominating people’s preferences. But this isn’t the gray of the past. Today’s grays are complex with added depth and dimension. Go extreme with a charcoal gray that embodies luxury or warm gray that embraces comfort. Either becomes a neutral backdrop that enhances and lifts up your style – be it modern, farmhouse chic, traditional, or eclectic.
You’ll notice in all types of flooring, fabrics, and paint, the gray undertones actually create a rich and comfortable aesthetic versus a staid, dreary one associated with the color in years past.
Many people are concerned their furniture may clash with gray. The opposite is actually true. Today’s grays provide a perfect neutral. The warm wood tones found in most furniture actually soften and complement the gray tones found in the flooring, seen on the walls or in the fabrics/accessories.
Gray can also provide a much needed calm in the midst of our busy lives and interiors. It’s a soothing color that provides sophistication and offers peace.
Give gray a try. Regardless of whether you have gray walls, flooring, or fabrics, the color gray is here to stay in home interiors for many, many years.
