When we think about neutral colors we often talk about black and white.
However, many of us disregard the gray color because it usually reminds us of gloominess and dullness.
Well, it is time to change your mind about this new neutral color – gray can be super stylish and fun!
Kitchen decor usually relies on beige, white, or unusual colors, but gray is becoming more and more popular. Why?
It is versatile, timeless, and classic, and will fit any style you want to achieve.
Here are some tips on how to make gray kitchen cabinets shine and look elegant.
1. Timelessness And Style
Gray will perfectly match copper and warmer tones.
This will bring harmony to your kitchen and accentuate the contrast between the two tones.
2. Modern and Traditional Intertwined
A well-chosen shade of gray can embody the perfect fusion of modern minimalism and traditional warmth.
3. Dark or Light Wood
Dark or light wood also perfectly pairs with gray cabinets.
This is quite convenient since wooden objects are usually used in kitchens or are a part of decor.
4. Mind the Details
From quartzite countertops to a beautiful mosaic tile backsplash, it’s the thoughtful details that bring a design to life.
5. A Pop Of Color
Rich greens always look great next to ‘dull‘ grays.
This combination looks both elegant and fun, so do not shy away from adding any shade of green to your kitchen decor.
