Grey Tone Trends
Roll over magnolia, grey tones are the new neutral.
Grey tones are helping homeowners create a cohesive style that can easily support changing trends and colour pops.
From matching with colours, such as fuzzy peach, pastels, and beige, to acting as a contrast with rich greens, blues, and whites; grey tones are considered an adaptable choice that has grown in popularity over recent years.
Regarding styles, grey offers a strong foundation that works comfortably with traditional and modern home trends, highlighted by over 400k takes on #greyhome interiors on social media platforms.
