I just want to bring these pieces of furniture together with a subtle colour pallet

I think I would go for a very pale pink or chalk pink on the walls like the image from 0.lushhomes. If you don't want pink on the walls go for a pale pastel grey wall and add pale pink cushions and a patterned rug under the dining table. Team the pink cushions with patterned ones in white/grey or white/black. Maybe add a vase of faux hydrangeas on the console. Pale pink also looks good with black if you want to mix modern with traditonal so could add black framed art.

Hi The great thing about grey is that it is a neutral and can be pretty much mixed with anything:-) A few pieces and possibly prints in duck egg, black , a copper lamp or table, and you have your scheme. I have attached a few images below just to show you the diverse range of options and how anything goes. I don't know if your style is contemporary or more relaxed but the same theories apply - Interiors in my opinion look more interesting when things are not too matchy matchy. If you bought a copper/brass influenced, coffee table, lamp, side table, duck egg throw, a couple of cushions with duck egg and maybe white, black or muted green, a vase in teal, black etc. I know you get the idea. It can cost as little or as much as your budget allows and as you find pieces or things you love, they will all fit in beautifully but it will have a lovely relaxed feel. I hope this helps:-) https://www.houzz.co.uk/photos/wimbledon-family-house-transitional-living-room-london-phvw-vp~8736498 https://www.houzz.co.uk/photos/false-creek-condo-scandinavian-living-room-vancouver-phvw-vp~11284069 https://www.houzz.co.uk/photos/san-francisco-pied-a-terre-contemporary-living-room-san-francisco-phvw-vp~34295322 https://www.houzz.co.uk/photos/heritage-home-renovated-by-tanner-kibble-denton-architects-tdka-contemporary-living-room-sydney-phvw-vp~12504826 https://www.houzz.co.uk/photos/living-etc-west-london-house-tour-2015-contemporary-living-room-london-phvw-vp~32703732 https://www.houzz.co.uk/photos/geometric-collection-contemporary-living-room-london-phvw-vp~36425901 https://www.houzz.co.uk/photos/shortlisted-sbid-international-design-awards-2013-residential-category-contemporary-living-room-london-phvw-vp~12418133 https://www.houzz.co.uk/photos/clarendon-works-industrial-living-room-london-phvw-vp~19400707

Thoughts on grey windows?
Q
Comments (57)
I would go with black upvc windows at the front I think they would look really classy and different. I have an original 1930s round bay window fronted house with the original leaded lights they are beautiful mine is one of only two houses on the street with the original windows. As you can imagine they really need replacing but I cannot bear to let them go but if I have to I would be different and go for grey upvc. Or black.

Wall colour to go with light grey units
Q

When you say your wall colour is “strong white” do you mean Farrow and Ball Strong White? Looks lovely. I’ve got the same dilemma-Dove Grey units in an east facing room which gets not much light. I’ve tried a million samples and can’t find that “right one”. Thanks

HELP! How can I make this grey sofa work in this room!

I'd go for raspberry & pink, not as harsh as red, but definitely warming. I'd be very tempted if you go for the darker curtains, to go for the same colour rug, just for a bit of unity. However, if you then put a wooden coffee table on the rug, the wood will warm it up. All the pinks above will go with any grey, Different texture cushions in paler colours will help soften the look. This rug and coffee table go well with the whole theme, softens it down, and although grey tones, when mixed in with the soft accessories, cushions, vases, curtain ties etc will look really cosy. Coffee Table Maybe a copper and wood floor lamps? Laura Ashley Rug
