Grey Matters

Sometimes subtle is better when it comes to bathrooms and kitchens, that’s why we love the look of grey and the passive elegance it exudes. More than just your plain white, but not as bold as colour, grey really does bring out the best in kitchens and bathrooms.

You can tone it up or down as much as you like by adding subtle hints of colour or keeping it all neutral with only tones of grey and white.

Have a look at some ways to add grey to your kitchen or bathroom, in a simple yet effective way.

Paint your cupboards.

Give your kitchen cupboards some much-needed attention, with a new lick of paint. Choose a gorgeous subtle hint of grey and reshape the entire look and feel of your kitchen. You can go for a very light shade of grey for a more muted look or a darker grey for a vibrant, bolder look.

It may be a good idea to purchase a sample colour from your nearest outlet and paint a small patch on one door to try it out, before you do the whole kitchen.

A grey feature wall.

Choose a dominant wall in your bathroom to offset from the rest, by painting it a dark grey or using different techniques to create a unique feature wall. You could choose a gorgeous grey tile for one wall in your bathroom for a vibrant look. Complement your grey feature wall with a beautiful white Eldon Bath fitting from by Vanda Baths and a DuraSquare washbasin from Duravit, for the ultimate relaxation.

Light it up.

If you would prefer a toned down hint of grey, add some grey lighting to your kitchen or bathroom. Choose metal light fittings for a trendy addition to your kitchen space. These look great in an otherwise white kitchen and bring in an industrial design element.

However you add grey to your kitchen or bathroom, it is sure to look gorgeous and oh-so-elegant. Have fun with it!
