I am obsessed with grey walls. I feel like I see them everywhere lately - in magazines and on design blogs - and in the short time I've been blogging, this is probably the third or fourth time I'm mentioning them. So when the time came to paint my office, I dappled with the idea of light greens or light pinks (my other obsession). But inevitably, I went with grey. It makes the white and dark furniture pop against the walls, and it just has a calming effect on the room. And perhaps my favorite thing about grey walls are that they look great with any color scheme. Yellow, green, pink, light blues - they all compliment the neutral color.

These lamps are similar shape and color to my desk lamp, and when I saw this photo, I was convinced the teal green would look great against grey.

I love the white architectural detail - it softens the dark grey.

OH...MY...WORD! This is beautiful! The only thing it's missing is a fresh bouquet of sweet smelling flowers.
ReplyDeleteI love the grey. It works well with traditional or modern. Very calming color. The grey makes the white wood pop in your office. Your mom just needs a white desk!
