Is it just me or are we all ready to bid a fond farewell to the all gray everything we’ve been seeing over the (at least) past decade? Don’t misunderstand me - I don’t dislike the color gray and have used it in projects over the years, but I love the warmth and coziness of color, antiques and pretty patterns!
Here’s another recently completed project just north of Chattanooga that utilizes warm colors and textures. To me, this is aesthetic implies comfort and evokes an overall welcoming vibe to the home’s interiors.
A common misconception I hear from time to time is that grays and beiges cannot be used in the same space. Let me set the record straight. It’s not an either / or situation. You absolutely can combine grays and camels in the same room. In fact, I would argue that this mix of warm and cool is what creates a balanced room temperature. Using all warm tones can feel stifling and oppressive, while all cool tones can feel sterile and cold. And nobody wants that!
Enjoy a few more photos that illustrate how effective a balance of warm and cool colors is in creating comfortable and inviting interior spaces.
So have I convinced you that warm and cool colors can coexist peacefully in the same room? If you’re in the all gray era and wish to nudge your space into a warmer, more welcoming version, start with a few warm accents - brass, wood tones, or a natural fiber rug would be a great start to creating a perfectly balanced room!
