The colour of the moment, grey is everything you want it to be in almost any living space. Compatible with living rooms, kitchens, and bathrooms, it’s only natural that its powers would work beautifully in a bedroom. These forty grey bedrooms show the stretch of grey across a range of themes and colour solutions. Often paired with brighter reds, oranges or purples, its muted hues complement and contrast over a variety of design solutions. Whether for a couple, bachelor or bachelorette, each of these designs delivers to their desired end – pampering, relaxation, or a good night’s sleep – with grey as their hero.

Patterned to perfection, this grey bedroom uses stripes, hexagons and concrete to provide a canvas for autumnal hues. Bronze bauble lights and olive green are set upon by pops of yellow, blue and black in a rug and ornaments.

Textures dominate this muted space, made resplendent by a hanging bauble light. Mirrored by a bedside bauble vase, grey strikes in a feature wall and joinery. Differing woods line the rest.

The rectangle patterned headboard extends to the ceiling to neatly partition the bedroom into a sleeping space and a dressing space.

Shapes, rather than colours, dominate this grey space. A chequered feature wall leads to an oblong bed space, matched by a cylindrical bedside lamp and table.
