Gray is a very popular color among interior designers.

Experts often choose it for various projects, and there are reasons for this, which were discussed by the expert of the online publication BelNovosti, designer Yulia Tychino.

Thus, lovers of minimalism appreciate the variety of shades of gray - from cold to warm. When decorating an apartment, you can use a monochrome combination of dark gray with light shades.

Those who prefer bright accents can take advantage of gray’s ability to harmoniously combine with almost the entire color palette.

The following option looks especially interesting and original: a light gray background with untreated or rough materials such as brick, wood or stone. This combination gives the interior a special charm.

If you want to add texture, consider copper, gold, steel or silver accessories.

Gray color, complemented by a beige shade, becomes warmer and more cozy.

The expert advises: when choosing gray as the main color, make sure there is good lighting - otherwise the room will become boring and lifeless.

It is better to place several artificial light sources at different levels and not create obstacles in the path of natural light entering the room.

Good lighting is required for every area, so don't limit yourself to one chandelier, even if the room is small.
