Griege: Neutral Bedroom Ideas

Your most personal space is an excellent place to start when it comes to the growing griege trend. Think soft, beige linens with a twist! The hint of cool from the grey will instantly modernize your bedroom without taking away from the cozy feel. While you can feel free to add vibrant accent colors, you can also opt to keep your palette neutral without the fear of your room looking dull. Hang a piece of wall art with abstract theme that uses griege as its dominant tone. Pile soft textiles in both grey and beige to create cohesive contrast.

Incorporating Griege in Your Kitchen

Mushrooms are a great example of griege in nature. This mousy color can be lifted by lightening its overall tone and adding texture. Hang an oversized piece of wall art with ivory and grey details over your modern cooking space. If you’re lucky enough to have any concrete finishes in your kitchen, stain them in a slightly warmer color to give the griege illusion. Use white or off-white as a pop of brightness that won’t compete with the griege atmosphere.

Playing with Griege in the Living Room

Griege is an ideal base for the most communal room in your home. Neutrals have always been popular in living room décor, and there’s a clear reason why. Because your living room is a space to be shared, it is important to make your guests feel comfortable. Neutrals are inoffensive and they never go out of style. However, warm and cool tone trends tend to ebb and flow. The benefit of griege is that no matter which tonal temperature is in, your space will look up-to-date. You can also add pops of rose gold, peach, and sage green for an additional trendy touch.

Hang a piece of wall art with a griege color scheme to emphasize your trendy-meets-timeless theme.
