It's a color that you can't complain about, nor love in my opinion!

Yes, gray is a great color to use its easy to decorate with and goes well with a lot.

too much grey out my window - winter blahs. I need something warmer. It is not a bad color, I just like others better.

I like all colours, so I like grey on a
whole. In clothes it suits me, too. My husband loves the colour for walls
especially French grey or any luminous yet calming shades of the same palette.

But I cannot say off the bat that I would
use it willy-nilly in the home just because it happens to be trendy. It all
depends on the available light, the mood of the room, the type of grey…in short
all the logical considerations one would go through before committing. I have
no grey walls in my present home but I am going to use a rich charcoal shade of
it for some upholstery soon.

I want to paint my kitchen cabinets grey, but not sure what colour to pait my wall. I would also have to paint my dining room. Also don't know what colour for accessories, like window treatment, cushions for on dining room chairs, and other things?

I have grey walls in my kitchen and used multi colored pattern in napkins to create curtains. I pull out whatever colors I like and keep it simple.

Gray walls are a a great neutral color to paint your walls and it is easy to find accent colors that look good with it to brighten up your room.

Great color! It's so easy to incorporate lots of different colored decor when you have gray walls.

I have been resisting the gray trend thinking it would look dull or cold but after trying several (lol..much more than I care to admit!) muted colors on my living room wall I decided to try Valspar's Seashell gray (very pale gray with a little warmth..like old sterling silver) and am astounded how lovely, light, and cohesive it looks with our pomegranate/gold/blue persian carpet and how rich the medium dark oak furniture looks against it! I don't want a gray room but as a neutral to use with color I love it!

worked 20 yrs in a dull grey office space. No grey in my house. Makes me depressed

Gray is ok for some people, but many prefer a warmer neutral such as beige. And some people much prefer a warm "blue," such as bluish green. What is distressing is that this gray, cold blue (& yellow) palette has replaced many choices in the beige and aqua palette. I am looking for a comfortable chair in that warm category and every time I find a chair I like, it is in that gray / yellow / cold blue palette. Trends aside, millions of people already have a beige & blue-green home and would like something to fit into it. When trends push other palettes aside, all those people may just give up finding pieces to fit their home. Then furnishings sellers wonder why sales are not as they expected.

Fortunately, that ship has sailed.

YESSSS

Gray walls photograph really nice. Unfortunately in person the house can look like a prison if you don't have enough bright decor to balance out the drab color. If you live where winters are dark and rainy the rooms will feel depressing. Add some blue or green in the paint to give it some color. A grayish green or a grayish blue is beautiful but true gray can make a house look depressing, cold, bleak and lack that cozy feel to the home.

For our newest model, we used SW Mindful Grey for the kitchen and great room and had a great response from visitors who toured the home. We did balance the grey with dark blues.

To me, gray is a neutral just like whites or beiges, and even some pastels can be neutral. White woodwork and adding pops of bright colors will wake us up. Gray kitchen cabinetry are the latest trend.

I think people are just hopping aboard the gray trend wagon! Like they see all the shows using gray and say: "Wow! Gray is so popular! Everyone likes it! So I should like it too, so I can be just like everyone else!" Well frankly, I am so BORED with gray...and not just because it is so overdone and trendy right now, either. Gray is COLD. Gray reminds me of a cloudy dreary day. Gray has no warmth. Creams and browns, on the other hand, are warm, as well as being classier and cozier...they don't need to look dated if done right. Gray is the color of a zombie....cold and dead...

My walls are grey with honey oak floors. Dislike this combo. It has no warmth and is not calming. Cool colors are not calming. I want some warmth and better overall look and feel. Grey may be trendy, but it does not blend with many furniture pieces either, esp. Mid century modern.

It truly depends on the light in the room. But try Accessible Beige from Sherwin Williams. It's a nice neutral that would compliment oak floors.

I love my gray walls and white baseboards and trim. I realize that it’s not for everybody but having lived with white walls for most of my life this is just enough color and neutral enough that I can use any color I want to with decor.
