head of the design studio Personally, I am deeply convinced that gray bedrooms look very impressive and stylish. You can use different shades of gray and black or combine with other colors - it will still be cool. I suggest you verify this by going through the new thematic selection.
A great option for the first example is an attractive and calming bedroom in gray tones. The combination of black, white and gray makes the room very stylish!
We continue the black and white theme with clear geometric lines. You can leave curtains or bed linen gray, for example. Or paintings on the walls.
What shades of gray to choose for bedroom interior design? Any! Here we have walls with a yellowish tint, which is warmer. Pay attention to silver doors - they look good as an alternative to white ones.
What do you think of this gray bedroom design? In combination with light wood furniture and golden beige colors, the result is warm and cozy!
Light gray walls are the perfect backdrop for... everything!
They look very beautiful in combination with darker textiles - curtains, bedspreads, pillows.
Even a small amount of gray will add zest to the interior. Gray brick wall and glossy gray door - why not?
Do you feel an atmosphere of calm? In such a room you can completely relax, give rest to both body and thoughts.
If a flat gray color seems boring to you, you can decorate one wall with decorative plaster, and make the other, above the head of the bed, colored.
Here is another option for a coolly designed wall. Just an art object! Look, there is very little gray in this room, but how beneficially it emphasizes the delicacy of the bedroom interior!
Gray is appropriate in almost any interior. This color is chosen by married couples, bachelors, and fragile girls. Please note: it is enough to change the curtains and bedspread in the room to set a new color accent.
What to consider when decorating a gray bedroom: how color affects the psyche
Despite the adequacy and popularity of gray color in the interior, it is sometimes difficult to choose the right shade of furniture, facing materials and decor. In order not to make mistakes at the stages of bedroom improvement, study a few points:
- Try to use gray as a background color. This will help emphasize the comfort and elegance of the relaxation room.
- Shades of gray should be light and neutral. A palette that is too dark has a negative effect on your emotional state.
- They try to choose furniture a tone darker than the background. This arrangement symbolizes the wealth and neatness of the owners.
- The decor in such bedrooms should be restrained and neat. The emphasis should be on modesty and classics.
- When covering one of the walls with wallpaper, you should choose a material in warm colors. Pale yellow, beige or coffee with monograms and patterns are suitable.
- Curtains will help balance the atmosphere. They try to choose textiles in pink or peach. This will make the room “warmer”.
- Don't forget about the decor. Wood paneling and matte texture emphasize modernity. Unusual wallpaper with a metallic tint will serve as an addition.
For spacious rooms, it is recommended to use soft upholstery on the walls or install small sofas to adequately decorate the comfort zone.

The choice of colors for the hallway interior directly depends not only on individual preferences, but also, mainly, on the size of the room.

They will visually expand the space and make it airier.
