What's YOUR neutral??

Many people love either gray, or beige .... few like both .... and some don't know 
WHICH one they like! 

What are OUR Favs??!

     




                  Benjamin Moore Rever Pewter                  Sherwin Williams Accessible Beige


                      
                Benjamin Moore Chelsea Gray                 Sherwin Williams Repose Gray


Houzz recently compared the two and we loved several of their ideas!

It's best to pick one or the other. 
On rare occasions you can mix the two and we will show you when later. But ultimately, deciding which is your fav is the first place to start.


A beige will warm things up. 
This neutral tone has a natural tendency to warm a room without creating a yellow 
or "old" hue to it.


Contrast with beige.
There are so many different types of beiges, that is makes for an easy contrast 
in many rooms.


Gray. This neutral can be color's best friend.
Gray will pop a bright color in awesome ways!


Black makes great accents with both grays and beiges. 


When a neutral is so close to gray OR beige, it's ok to mix them. 
When the line is blurry ... go for it. Mix away and enjoy!



Mixing Cream, White, and Gray ...and It's OK!

Mixing neutrals has long been discussed and sometimes decided as a faux pas. 

But we are here to tell you that in today's day and age it is NOT.

As said many times before, TCI prides ourselves in creating beautiful designs that are COMFORTABLE, DURABLE and livable!

One way we do that is by creating color schemes that are easy on the eye.

We love to combine neutrals such as cream, white and gray because ... it really is OK!


By painting the walls a calming cream and popping the windows with crisp white drapes and adding gray to the fabrics on the furniture, we quickly turn a room that could seem scattered and busy into a serene place.


We love incorporating light fixtures into color schemes. These beautiful white cone pendants are the icing on this gray and cream kitchen.

Neutral artwork can also be a wonderful way to make a wall look clean, crisp and well decorated without overpowering the space.


One way to spice things up is to add natural wood tones to an otherwise neutral room.

How do you prefer neutral design?!
