Monochromatic Paint

Since the entire interior of the Charleston rental was painted in Sherwin-Williams' Pussy Willow, the space takes on a cozy vibe, which makes this fireside table the perfect spot to curl up with a book.

Ashy Walls

A Verellen sectional in linen velour anchors a Maryland family room, but it's the faux-finished walls that look like they're made out of concrete that steal the show.

Complimentary Colors

In the sitting room of a Canadian townhouse, red leather nailhead trimming (from Samuel & Sons) looks like wall paneling and adds drama to the mostly-neutral space. The antique Gustavian sofa is upholstered in vintage raw silk for a rich look.

Nearly White

In a feminine townhouse, CB2 sofas in Kravet's Bacio and curtains in a Dedar fabric ground delicate pink accents like a Kate Spade New York table lamp from Visual Comfort. Soft gray couches anchor the mostly-white room.

Modern Living

Interior designer Steven Sclaroff makes a wide-open New York loft feel like home by using a palette that feels cozy. That includes painting the walls deep, rich grays and pairing them with camel curtains in Coraggio cashmere.

Soft and Subtle

In order to make the large, open rooms of a northern California house more livable, designer Myra Hoefer's idea was to choose a white, monochromatic palette and mix in lots of gray furnishings and texture. The result? An effortless blend of West Coast ease and French elegance.

Living Room Accented with Patterned Fabrics

To break up the monotony of the color gray in the living room of this Brookville, New York, home, interior designer Andrew Raquet used silver, gold and lots of pattern. The custom silk rug is from Tai Ping Carpets and makes a statement in the room.

Casual and Crisp

Designer Susan Ferrier of McAlpine Booth & Ferrier Interiors wanted the Alabama lake house to have a space that felt crisp, clean and young, the designer says. At the other end of the space, the dining area features a mammoth live-edge Provençal table.

Neutral Gray Living Room

Designer Susan Ferrier decorated this New York City apartment with a neutral color palette. In the living room, gray creates a sensual mood through the use of light and dark layers. There's a cabinet-of-curiosities aspect to the furnishings, starting with an iron-and-glass coffee table made by an unknown artist and found in France.

Blue-Gray Living Room

Gray serves as the accent for a blue color palette in this Los Angeles home, decorated by designer Kristen Panitch. In the living room she chose a tweedy gray sofa and a silvery-gray wallpaper as background for a huge Los Carpinteros painting. "The painting would have overpowered the room if I hadn't used colors from the other end of the blue spectrum," designer Kristen Panitch says.
