Color In Focus: Gray

Next to be featured in our series is a color that has grown in popularity in recent years.  Is it a fad or could it just be timeless?  Decide for yourself.  Please welcome, Gray.

Before you jump to conclusions about Gray as simply a color for industrial, modern, or masculine spaces, hear me out.  Gray can be a flexible neutral such as with stone or with furniture.  Gray can also be warm, as represented with taupe.  But the thing about Gray that has made it so popular in recent years is that it is stable.  When life is uncertain, unnerving, or tumultuous, our homes have to work harder than ever to be our refuge.  Simply put, Gray is safe.

Here are some images to demonstrate the subtle strength of Gray.
