15 Gray Bedroom Wall Paint Colors To Make Your Room Feel Relaxing

Neutral hues in bedrooms are timeless for a reason. Warm beiges create a cozy atmosphere, while bright whites allow vibrant décor and artwork to stand out. However, if you want to paint your bedroom, but can't decide between white and beige, gray is the answer.

Gray is always in style, as Real Homes notes. Gray comes in so many tones and colors that you're bound to find one that suits your taste. For example, in a lofted space, you can use dark gray paint to create a statement wall. But, if you want to create a peaceful spa-like bedroom, you can use a blue-hued or a light gray. You can even use a gray paint on your bedroom floor to prevent obvious scuff marks that show on natural wood. Once you've selected your perfect gray tone, add a burst of personality to your home with an accent color or two. Take a look at these gray bedroom ideas.

Pale gray

Are you looking for something that isn't too far from a traditional white? Pale gray color combinations, such as a soft gray wall and a just slightly darker couch, are an excellent choice. They work well with a wide range of color schemes and designs, and they keep the room feeling light and airy.

Lightest-of-the-light gray

If you want to try out gray paint, but are hesitant, go with something similar to this light gray. It is feather-light and allows other aspects of the room (such as a plant collection) to stand out.

Warm gray

Warm gray rooms are very modern, and they're a fantastic choice if you want to add a cozy feel to your bedroom's design. Warm lighting and natural textures go well with this paint's undertones.

Repose Gray

This hue is what's known as greige. To create a romantic, layered feel to a room coated in Repose Gray, incorporate other gray tones through furniture and linens.

Retro-style gray

Create a retro-style bedroom by setting off a medium gray with prints, patterns, or splashes of color. The vibe will be insanely fun.

Textured gray

Because gray is a neutral, you may want to add interest to your walls in other ways. Certain types of paint application add texture to a wall, making even the lightest shade of gray pop.

Cool gray

If you prefer minimalist styles but want a hue that's a little more vibrant than white, this shade of gray is a fantastic option. A light, cool gray with blue tints gives your walls a shimmering sheen.
