Gray bedroom: design features

Gray is the most versatile color. It is as neutral as white and black, but devoid of the excessive categoricality that is inherent in contrasting shades. Gray color has a lot of shades, it fits harmoniously into any interior, into any style and goes well with the most diverse furniture and decor.

It is perfect as a base, as a backdrop for something worthwhile. Being very deep and often attractively beautiful, he, nevertheless, knows how to become inconspicuous and smoky, receding into the background and nobly yielding primacy in your attention for pieces of furniture, lighting or decor.

The bedroom is one of those rooms where gray isn’t used very often. And in vain, as you will see now. After all, it’s hard to come up with a more competent base than a combination of gray with some other shade. Let’s take a closer look at several gray bedrooms, and with these examples we will try to highlight for ourselves successful examples of the use of this complex and multifaceted color..

Gray with blue and green in the bedroom

It is not necessary to dilute the gray with blotches of other colors. But since monochrome often looks very static, most people are more comfortable in more dynamic environments. That is why we suggest that you try to use such a combination of accents in a gray bedroom..

Against the backdrop of gray walls and gray furniture, a few bright spots of blue and green will look very fresh. In addition, there are a lot of decor in these color combinations in stores, so it will not be difficult for you to find worthy companions for already purchased items..

Gray with beige and smoky lilac in the bedroom

The combination of gray and beige colors is fraught with a certain danger. You need to be sure to analyze the selected gray color as a base well, and only after understanding it, choose a shade of beige.

The fact is that gray colors can be primitively divided into two types: those that are closer to yellow or blue colors. This dramatically affects the situation. If your gray, as in the photo above, is closer to yellow, we also choose a warmer beige, and vice versa.

Both of these colors must be selected according to this criterion, otherwise they will «argue» in the interior with each other, and the loser in the interior (most often this is a color with a yellowish tint) will look dirty and worn.

Smoky lilac is one of the most suitable colors for the neighborhood with gray. They complement each other perfectly and go well in any proportion.

Gray with black in the bedroom

The union of black and gray looks very noble. They look especially good when there are several categorically different tones of gray in the interior..

Then the picture seems to come to life, the gamut is diluted with a thousand different nuance shades and the room bewitches with these gentle and thoughtful subtle transitions.

Remember – there should not be a lot of black: a few small pieces of furniture, legs of chairs and beds, decor or even sources of lighting. Filling the interior 15-20% with black is an excellent indicator, which is quite enough to create the right atmosphere..

Gray with coral and blue

This set of colors seems to radiate warmth. It will look especially good in rooms facing north, devoid of bright sunlight during most of the day. This flaw will competently smooth out the coral color, the color is very active, bright, but at the same time completely non-aggressive, which is very important for the bedroom..

Blue, in turn, will help you tune in to the marine theme – and now you have already received an ideological thematic interior.

You can complement the picture with the appropriate decor and textile design. As for the gray color – in this case, work with a gamut that is closer to blue shades than yellow.

Gray with white and blue in the bedroom

This combination immediately creates associations with technology. «gzhel». It becomes ornamental, a little traditional, static, understandable from childhood. Gray and white can saturate a room in large quantities – it is quite difficult to overdo it with such noble colors..

 advice – try using a complex shade of gray for your main background. It doesn’t have to be a trivial mouse color – experiment with color combinations. Let the gray shine purple, blue, even greenish.

—————————————————————————————————————————————

The main thing is that the proportion of this inclusions is negligible, and you still perceived the painting of the walls as «sophisticated gray with a shade of lilac», and not like purple, say. This will be a clear mistake, so watch carefully and do not cross this line, otherwise there is a high probability that other color combinations will have to be abandoned or at least revised..

Gray with brown in the bedroom

This combination is by far the most exquisite. A complex gray color with an equally multifaceted brown, when properly combined, create an excellent range. They complement, flow into one another, saturate neighboring objects with surrounding colors. Try using gray and brown in a ratio of 70:30 respectively, or even 60:40. At the same time, be sure to choose a more smoky brown color, as if with a dove-gray tie, because shades like milk chocolate can look too yellow in combination with gray – we mentioned this problem in paragraph 2.

You can work endlessly with gray. Each drop of an additional shade creates more and more new facets in which it can be developed and successfully used. Do not be afraid of difficulties, experiment and create truly individual interiors in your home. We hope your gray bedroom will be one of your most successful projects. Happy renovation!
