Choose Shades Of Grey That You Like
Neutrals or moodies? Choose the shades of grey to your liking: from very light and subtle to dark charcoals and almost black to create an ambience that you like. It will be a perfect base for further decorating, and then choose shades of green that you like: emerald, mint, sage, lime or else, it depends on your taste and mood you want to create. A dark green room can also be a choice as moody spaces are on trend. In such a case you will have to add no less dark grey tones or dilute the dark color palette with lights.
