I’ve been seeing and working with a lot of gray samples and gray design schemes lately.  It’s a beautiful neutral that’s easy on the eyes — alone (or with another neutral, like taupe, white or off-white) creates a relaxed, modern ambience and paired with a bright warm color adds a bit of punch to the overall design.   It can be used as a wall finish with blue-gray, brown-gray or even white with gray undertones and also mixed in with other colors and tints.  Here’s a few pics I’ve had in my idea books that were found in shelter mags:

Yesterday, I received the latest Vahallan Papers postcard and it had a familiar scheme…  This particular design is new and called Veyda II.

The weather here in Florida looks like it’s following some designs: gray, gray, gray.  Tropical Storm Fay (or “Stay”, as my friend Monica calls always-circling back storm) is just dumping buckets of rain here in Central Florida.  We’re leaving for an out-of-town commission tomorrow but there’s no break — it’s still here in Florida, LOL! I’m also working on putting together The Wallnuts post – it’ll be up soon.  Have a great day!
