Greige: The New Grey

By Morgan Saylor

Color trends can be hard to keep up with, and sometimes you’re still in love with the last color when the new trend roles in and, well – parting can be such sweet sorrow. Enter: Greige.

For a long while home interiors were predominantly beige (everyone’s go-to neutral, right?) and then gray (kind of like beige, but more modern and fun). Greige is, as the name implies, a perfect marriage between the two!

Here are some cool and warm shades of greige and how they work in different rooms:

Beige and black furniture with greige walls and brown (with grey undertone) wood floors is extra dramatic in this living room.

A greige bedroom with light furnishings and chrome finishes from floor to ceilings looks sleek and high-end.
