Decorating your home with grey tones: a winning combination
07 / ago. / 2019
Grey is a silvery colour, and in its most positive meanings it alludes to wisdom, sophistication, seriousness, tenacity, peace and tranquillity. In fashion, grey is one of the most commonly used colours, beyond trends and what is in vogue, and the same goes for decoration. Its versatility allows it to be combined with any colour, bringing balance and contrast to a room with greens, reds or blues or following a paired-back range of cream tones. Its decoration possibilities are virtually infinite.
Dare to combine grey walls with a striking yellow rug
Yellow represents youth, positivism, joy and happiness. It is clear, bright and associated with nature. This is a very explosive colour and attracts a lot of attention and so can be loud for some people. Décor that combines grey with yellow manages to balance the neutrality of one colour with the liveliness of the other. In a living room with grey walls, a yellow rug not only provides it with light, but also gives it a chic and very original touch.
Combine grey rugs with greenery
A grey rug will go perfectly with accessories and other textiles in green tones, as this is a fresh colour that will bring contrast to the room.
Whether you like to have plants in the house, or you want to give that touch of nature and life through leaf motifs in paintings or on cushions, green is the right colour. Whether it's grass green, fluorescent, or lime green, any shade will match other types of decorative accessories such as grey rugs. Choose plain rugs, if you want to give it a more neutral look and use a grey rug with geometric patterns if you choose to add an extra something to your décor.
White purity that contrasts with the grey of your rug
If you combine two colours that go with everything, the result can only end up looking good. That's what happens when you mix white with grey. In a house with white tones, where furniture, walls and partitions are in that colour, grey will bring a touch of sophistication, elegance and class. If you also want to provide a spark of colour, you can do so either with a more striking piece of furniture, such as a red armchair, or with some accessories, such as choosing cushions with brightly coloured prints.
Decorate with a made-to-measure grey rug and brown tones
Benefit from the softness and tranquillity of grey in your bedroom with a rug that covers the entire surface of the room like a carpet. The made-to-measure rugs allow you to cover all or part of the floor on which you can go barefoot, comfortably stepping on a soft surface. If you also want to give it a touch of warmth, combine grey with brown tones in furniture or home wear and have a room as cosy as it is elegant.
