Formal Sitting Room

Sara Slade | Interior Design

It is a luxury to have two sitting rooms, but with a house with many floors and a family it really helps! This room was designed to have a calmer area for the family to sit together and for this reason we calmed the colours down o give it a softer feel. A large rug in the room and floor to ceiling curtains really elevates the space, whilst taking the textured wallpaper around the room ensures the room feels luxurious and warm.

Vicki Zimmer Designs

This study room was created by removing a wall and replacing it with Crittall style folding glass doors opening up the space making it feel much larger. We built wall to wall, floor to ceiling bookcases for the client's many books and created a faux fireplace painted to look like black marble. A large white silk lamp shade hangs from the ceiling. A Gallery wall of art work and a mid century burnt orange wingback chair complete the room.

Grey Living Room Ideas and Designs

Are you looking for some grey living room ideas? Want to know the best way to design your room working with a grey colour scheme? Grey comes in so many shades varying in warmth and coolness. Deciding what colour grey to use can change the style and mood of your living room so it is important to choose the right shade.

Grey is a great colour that layers up with varying shades. Just using one solid shade of grey in your room can leave it feeling flat and uninviting, but using multiple varieties can be the basis of a beautiful colour scheme.

Using grey paint on the walls works as a neutral base to build your grey living room ideas on. Grey wallpaper is another option and can also work as a feature to add some texture or pattern to the scheme.

What goes with grey walls?

With grey living room walls at the base of your scheme, there are so many other things you can do to decorate your room. Use other bright and bold colours to add a ‘splash of colour’ without overpowering your room. Colours that go particularly well with grey include pink, teal, mustard, navy, yellow, white, black and green.

Using furniture and furnishings works as a great way to bring colour into your grey living room design. Bold coloured sofas in pink, teal and mustard in particular look fantastic with grey walls. The furniture you choose to go with a grey scheme depends on the style you are trying to achieve.

Using metallic touches in your grey themed living room also adds a glamorous luxury feel. With other luxury textures like marble, fur and velvet, you can really create something truly stunning.

A monochromatic scheme using grey, white and black is particularly striking. Using pale shades of grey to create contrast between the three colours, this look is not only classy and elegant, but is also timeless. Decorating your living room in this way will still look stylish in years to come.

What goes with grey sofa?

A grey sofa can be literally worked into any scheme as it is works with so many styles. From modern and chic to rustic or country style, a grey sofa fits in.

In the living room, grey is truly a versatile colour and can be used in many ways and comes in a multitude of shades so you’re bound to find something to suit your taste.
