Great Warm Neutrals

Cool beige baby’s room.

The trend has been moving away from gray to beige walls. There is another term that has come into use: greige, that quite accurately describes the bridge color, a gray/beige. These colors are really versatile for walls, because if you add warm colored furniture and accessories: such as gold, orange or wood; it makes greige appear browner, and the opposite is true: gray, blue or green furniture bring out the gray of greige.

The benefit of painting your walls neutral colors is their longevity. You can change up furniture, artwork, and accessories and the room looks new. Neutrals are relaxing and allow your furniture and artwork to shine. They work great if you want a monochromatic look, but add slight value and textural variations for interest. If you are leaning towards warm walls, here are some gorgeous warm neutrals to try.

Pale Oak OC-20 Benjamin Moore. A light color with a balance of gray and beige.
