How to incorporate Ultimate Gray and Illuminating in the kitchen:
- Consider an area rug. Kitchens tend to be where people gather — and (shoeless) feet feel coziest on carpeting. Black, white, and black and white kitchens get a touch of warmth when an Ultimate Gray-toned area rug is layered on top of tile flooring. Pottery and other table toppers in gray are also easy ways to feature Ultimate Gray in the kitchen.
- Try an accent wall. Either to give an eat-in kitchen nook its own identity or to enliven one side of the room, a splash of sunny yellow paint serves as an instant mood and design booster.
- Couple gray with metallic fixtures. To complement gray countertops or tile flooring in a modern way, pick a stainless, chrome or matte black faucet. Metallic drawer pulls can also elevate an all-gray kitchen.
How to incorporate Ultimate Gray and Illuminating in the bathroom:
- For a spa-like, serene atmosphere, experts recommend neutral colors, like gray, in the bathroom. Though yellow can be beautiful as an accent to gray, avoid using the shade to paint the whole bathroom; light bounces off it and can do funny things to a person’s skin tone (giving it a greenish cast) when confined to a small, enclosed space.
- Opt for fresh (or silk) yellow flowers, like daffodils or crocuses, to add a naturally cheerful element to a gray bathroom.
How to incorporate Ultimate Gray and Illuminating together in your kitchen or bathroom:
- Finding throw pillows and blankets for banquette seating in the kitchen in both shades is a great way to dip your toe into the gray-and-yellow trend in a soft, natural, yet not necessarily permanent way.
- Fold yellow hand towels over gray bath towels in a basket or over a rack to give an all-white bathroom a little kick of color.
