Every element of your bedroom should seamlessly tie in together

Your grey room décor should be balanced and structured. Ensure the tones match, – be it the walls, furniture or furnishings. Also, do not overdo on furniture as this will make your space look cluttered.

Lighting can make or break the look of a room. Instead of choosing common options like pendant lights, why not create a grey headboard wall and install some backlighting? It’s also going to be the perfect solution to help you read at night!

#12: Cool-Toned Greys for a Modern Ambience

By keeping the colour palette neutral, the focus of this room is the stunning floor-to-ceiling window

Instead of a light grey bedroom, opt for cool-toned shades of grey. This creates a more contemporary look. You can mix it up with other neutrals like white and beige, especially if your bedroom is compact.

#13: Match Colours With Grey

While an all-grey bedroom looks stunning, colours can add a lively pop. Opt for soft, pastel shades like mint-green and light orange so that the pop colours tie in seamlessly with grey.
