Dark Grey Bedroom Walls

Right now the master bedroom is neutral, tan, beige, skin tone. Oh how I want that to change. But something I've been challenging myself to do is patiently plan each room, and map out colors and aesthetics that Matt and I are both drawn to. Simple, crisp, and vintage is an overarching theme that I find myself mapping out in my mind over and over. And grey. Or gray. Grey/gray. The color keeps cycling back to the house plans, sneaking its way into every single room I redesign in my head. Gray so light it is almost white in the family room, grey base cabinets with bright white top cabinets in the kitchen, and subtle grey shelves in the laundry room. Leaving the the darkest of all the greys in the master bedroom. I've been trying to picture this bottom look in our room. What do you think? I kind of love it.

This week I have spent more hours in my covers and sheets, sprawled out on the couch, and buried in pillows and kleenex than I have in ten years. You can read more about that HERE. It is only suiting that my wanderings on Pinterest lately have been heavily weighted in browsing photographs of cozy spaces. In my last post on color translation HERE, I mentioned that I often find myself translating home decor items, photographs, and well loved outfits into home design color palettes and aesthetic. Although the feel of Pink, Pattern and Cheery is far from Brown, Plaid, and Equestrian {and visa versa}, both design aesthetics in this collection derive from the utmost in comfy, cozy, curl up with a good book, take a cat nap, and rest your soul necessities. These beautiful spaces could have also been inspired & translated from these vintage {meets modern} home decor and style items. One thing is for certain,  with a cup of tea and book in hand, all of these rooms fit well with the wise words of C.S. Lewis "You can never get a cup of tea large enough or a book long enough to suit me."
