Why Grey Is the New White
Move over white, there?s a new player in town. Grey has been an ?underdog? of the color world for too long. It has been considered dull, drab and depressing and pushed aside by its ?more appealing? and warmer neutral buddies, such as beige and sand. However, for the past few years, grey has rather quietly been making its way up, and before we could even notice, it has established itself as the go-to neutral shade in today?s interiors. This trend can be linked with the rise of Scandinavian chic, which used grey in generous amounts even before it was ?cool?. Let us try to learn something the Scandinavians already know ? what?s so great about grey and what makes it the new white.

We could go on like this forever. The point is that there is a shade of grey for everyone ? from homeowners too shy to jump out of their beige comfort zone to those willing to take the risk and go with the grey flow.
