Fall and winter are moody seasons, and during this time we often feel like getting some relaxing and moody decor. Grey tones like charcoal and graphite are a very cool solution for any space, these are timeless shades that never go out of style and are very compatible. Today’s roundup is dedicated to charcoal grey and stylish ways to rock this color in your interiors.
What Color Is Charcoal Grey?
Charcoal grey, or anthracite grey, is a color blend of black and white, which is very close to black but is significantly brighter, so it’s a softer and not so typical color solution if you are looking for alternatives to black.

How To Use Charcoal Grey?
The first idea that comes to my mind is walls, and if you make all of them charcoal grey, the space might seem quite moody, if it’s what you want, then go ahead. If not, consider one or two walls done with such paint. Charcoal grey sofas, chairs and even tables will be a great choice for living rooms and dining rooms, and as for seating furniture, this color is perfectly not showing dirt. Charcoal lamps and home textiles like pillows or rugs are welcome to finish off the interior. Get inspired!
