Hello Dear Friends – I see an increase in Gray coming back into the world of interior, right? I have to admit that there was a little shock because the gray once was a huge trend, and then it was greatly excessive beige and “greige” trend (grayish beige) over the last few years.
I remember the time when everything comes out of Scandinavian design was black, white and gray or bright basic color – think purely red, green, blue, yellow. Many floral, a lot of streaks. Then Vibra changed and we saw a lot of beige and cream. I felt like it was somehow wrong to use white on the walls in the last few years. Black lovers migrated to Brown. White lovers, to the cream. Gray lovers in Greige or Beige. Pure color lovers in muted tones of their favorite threads and pastels have become trendy, which you are usually not connected to the Scandinavian design in the past.
Pure gray returns for 2024, slowly, but for sure.
Gray (or gray in American English) is a neutral, ahoromatic color sitting between black and white. No chromium (achromatic) so there is no shade. It is the color of the sky covered with cloud, stone, line in marble, lead, ash and cement. Some say it is the official color of depression. Others, elegance and calm.
Let’s look at some examples of usage gray in the house that feels elevated, in the mood and serene and examine how it is done, right?
Mixing gray with white, black and beige definitely heats up space. Leaving greing in one’s own way can feel a little too mood and bring a solemn vibe. In this picture above, you can see however, the fabric heats things together with patin on a magnetic pin plate above the table.
By the way, don’t you like the peeling color on the wall shown up?
This is one of the most beautiful characteristics of the old home, although most people are very quick and painting, which I understand how these walls can become problematic if they left only a long time.
However, you can create a wall by combining wax and color – here it is YouTube video that helped start. Some even buy wall paper that looks like above shown on the wall.
Personally, I am most inspired by authenticity in people and in design, and I appreciate cracks and spotted walls in years – although we need to get creative and achieve this for ourselves.
I live in Northern Europe, so I have to be careful with the beam in my house or otherwise it can get drunk and winters much longer. I can get enough winter depression, I don’t need a gray bedroom. However, these bedrooms above are a good example of how to make the mood calm gray, not sad or drying out. What do you see as a trick to achieve this?
For me, the trick keeps windows to be largely discovered to allow as much natural light as possible.
You can always use a very minimalist blind system to allow in all this natural light during the day. Even in gray days, it is best not to close the curtains or have a lot of shadows in the curtain – or otherwise you can start feeling cut off the world and become a little clump. Keep the windows as free as you can – it makes a big difference in how you feel.
If Privacy is a problem, use blinds night.
Another thing I noticed above the bedrooms above, gray was broken with white and tones of careless and natural materials like bedding, jute, ceramics and wood. The material of the material creates the beauty you see here. Wrong bedding on the right and stripe of bedding to the left, almost attracts you to lie down with a book and cold for a while.
I love these two pictures. You may think when you see a striped throw, It’s gray and white! And when you see the kitchen, It’s beige! But look carefully.
We can see beige and gray in combination in both images that create the mood we get from both.
What do you feel when you see a picture on the beach?
What is the mood present when do you look at the kitchen?
They both give me a feeling calm and feeling how much joy can come from the simple moments that are really beautiful. Every picture shows us how you feel when it is surrounded by beauty – natural beauty at sea and natural materials in the house (wood, marble, brass, glass). Also, each picture combines beige and gray. The sea has wonderful beige sand and gray and white demolition. Cuisine, beige cabinets with natural marble boards with gray veins that pass through it.
Another way to create heat and comfortable vibrations with gray, in addition to using natural materials, is adding some green plants and flowers. You don’t have to cross the tip of Urban Viba in the city jungle at home. Less can be more if you are not naturally good mama plant or simply travel too much to give them love that they often require to stay fresh. In these pictures above, you can see that even the smallest amount of green can raise and bring life to the room. The germs in the vessel lend a mood. If you remove flowers from the table and greenery from the bowl, you would have a much less handsome vibration to feel right now. The same goes for the left image, remove the wood of pot and a cow parsley from the vase and suddenly the character of space changes and is almost feeling like life has come out of the room.
These images are interesting that both are very different, but very effective in their use of gray combined with natural materials and nature.
The left picture feels full and I find setting that mirror very distinctive, right? Also, the bench, as he sends himself in space if the natural urge was to hold it alignment on the wall.
In interior design you need to be a very smart and well-dressed stylist so you can use the rules effectively. I think it’s very well done because the goal with a photo of the product, which is, is to take a viewer to look deeper in the picture, to stay there. Contrary, to turn nicely through the catalog, is not a goal of smart business. Add something unexpected in the spread and then. If each picture is like that, it doesn’t work – it feels both constantly and stupid. Like someone is trying to be cool. But in this case, brand (Doctor of the house) Is it smart in leaving the season packs for the season – and I love how you really stop you from stopping you while trying to understand the reasoning behind the mirror and the accommodation of the bench. 🙂
The kitchen recorded right is also interesting – candle adds warmth, adding nature and in this dark tone, almost deep tone of eggplants and green in glass software and pots is perfection in combination with a gray cabinet.
How is calling this scene left? I love a chair pardon outside the door and greenery outside. I also enjoy combination of black-beige fabrics, together with natural wooden floors of natural bone and old walls with worn patina.
Industrial attic space on the right is also greeting, it reminds me that open spaces can be charming and comfortable with the addition of right touch. If you remove the natural wooden glass cabinet, wooden chair and mat, the room would immediately feel the refrigerator.
I like ceilings, walls and floors in this space on the left, there are so many characters. I like it and a light messy vibration, it’s more like I’m living at home – always a crowd on the dining table and some imperfections around me – I love it. In the right picture you have more modern and cleaner space, clean lines, metal, smooth finish, yet Malawki The chair, adds so much heat and makes the space feel so interesting in my opinion.
