Either warm or cool gray provides a rich background for color accents in a room. People think gray has no color quality to it but my experience is anything but. It is distinctly rich and welcoming.

We just finished our bedroom and study, both grey. Sorry I am unable to attach photo. I need technical advise on that. I started by choosing wallpaper , two colors grey in a baroque design. The rest of the room was painted in the darkest grey. We have an antique quilt for the bed in dark pink , almost red and could find material for the draperies in just a tad darker. Black bedside tables and black chair. The artwork is black/white as well. For the moment it is my favorite room in the house. It is at the same time sophisticated and very warm.

I love apple green as a neutral. Sounds insane but it is gorgeous with all wood tones, metal, glass, fabrics, etc. Try it, you'll like it!

I love Benjamin Moore's Sombrero - its a very soothing neutral, a soft muted gold. (It is so soothing in fact that used in our living room it lulls us to sleep! I finally painted a feature wall in a bright turquoise to wake us up!)

nancyjohn, I,too, love apple green and have used the color in a kitchen and a living room...it was perfect and did, indeed, look good with stainless appliances as well as all furniture.

Blue gray

Apple green...oh, I lust for apple green Caesarstone countertops!

Hi Jeannie, I haven't received the newsletter for about a month. How can I get it back, I really miss not having it. Thanks a lot :-)

I love our dramatic chosen colours, not everyone's cup of tea, but very intimate and luxurious

Whoops 2 pics of the same

Again, I'll try once more

Our 75 inch smart tv is flush with the wall

I'm even proud to have a new letterbox! It's all exciting, and photos don't do it justice

And I love my floating dark matt wooden floor, the rest is charcoal carpet

For walls, a purple gray like Manhattan Mist is a nice color as it warms up a traditionally cool color.

porter paint velvet white

Benjamin Moore Pashmina.

Warm golden tans, look good by day & night, in any room from contemporary to traditional

Yes, they are pretty, but can lead to skin cancer.

Hope this works

Am I getting the newsletter?

Warm Grays, ummmmm..., and they compliment Walnut wood well, a match made in heaven.

studio CMT- I agree.

i's say charcoal or white; our bedroom has both.

Taupe...

I like warmer colours for the bedroom like deep creams-right now bedroom has a crimson arch wall bay window area and deep creams on the longer walls. Greys and blues are a bit too cool for a bedroom, my opinion anyway but to each his own.

Creamy yellow. I associate gray with depressing. Color choice also has to do with current furnishings and accessories.

I don't care for grey walls. I prefer sandy, pale taupe-y tones, beiges, ivory...

i like black as a neutral too, or black and white combo... and navy.

I like warm gray's because they make you feel cosy and they are very elegant colors.

I don't care for grey walls. I like pale sandy colors to set off the wood tones of furniture.

My living room & entryway are in BM Titanium, and it's so light and peaceful, I love it! Makes it easier to switch out accessories seasonally too :)

Whites and creams❤️

I love my blue-grey room! My guest room is green-grey... Everyone loves it

I'm going to paint my children grey because I love it so much. Grey is the in color! See the choices you gave us? Three out of five are grey-ish! Go grey! Sherwin Williams had to mix up some new colors because grey is the new tan. Now, what are we all going to do in three years when grey is on the outs?????

Blue grey greens. I painted my family room & kitchen grey with green undertones. Love the color.

I painted my living and dining rooms a mustardy yellow (Benjamin Moore's Cork) because it's a great backdrop for the deep blues, purples, and reds that I just can't live without. Next time I paint, though, I'll probably go with some type of ivory.

It all depends upon the room.

Sherwin-Williams (Navajo White) which is not white -- can do wonders with art and accessories in any color to make your walls pop -- Love this color.

blue goes with everything and it is my favorite color.

BGs

I would never consider purple a neutral color. I love Taupe as a neutral.

I know who wrote this poll? Blue jeans blue is first, then taupe, creamy white, followed by gray i guess.

And what about those of us that love color?! For instance we're planning a deep navy blue or rich sapphire for the dining room.

shhh... don't tell anyone tooky, but i would actually love little stars on that rich dark blue ceiling. oh dear, how geeky/tacky am i?! my favorite theater back home had stars on the ceiling.

I lve purple the darker the better, mixed with blue"colbalt blue"!!!

I love purple the darker the better mixed with coublt blue, so awesome!!!

When it comes to kitchen renovations, white is the new beige. It offers endless possibilities for decorating changes, timeless elegance in the new Transitional style. For some photos of our neutral kitchen designs, visit our dedicated Kitchen Renovations page: T&K Kitchen Designs

i love white in kitchens clean and bright looking, i also think dark blue lends a clean look for some reason. i would like white uppers, dark blue bottoms with probably stainless tops, old but i like it.

Some of our favorite colors.
