Ways with Gray Wall Colors

Light-filled Space

Airy and light-filled rooms, like the room above, can be good places to think about using gray for walls. Deeper in value than white, gray visually brings the room down in size and adds a sense of intimacy. If a room gets too little light gray may be a gloomy choice for some; something to consider. Try out your gray selection first, maybe on an accent wall, to see how you feel about the color.

In this expansive room a cool gray adds a modern feel, contrasting with the farmhouse look of the space. The wall color is Benjamin Moore Coventry Gray (HC-169). Light-filled Space -   Ways with Gray Wall Colors
