Light BrownBrown is a rich color that can bring visual drama to any space. When combining brown walls with a knotty pine ceiling and oak floor, choose a light brown to bring out the knots and grain of the wood. Brown is found in tree bark and trees, so it is an appropriate addition to a room filled with natural wood.
Light Brown Wood FloorLight brown wood flooring is one that matches perfectly with gray walls. There are several types of wood that have a light brown color like this, such as walnuts and oak. The combination of the light brown floor with gray wall creates a room that looks flawless and natural.
When gray is paired with a warm wood tone, the wood becomes the color in the room. And that's enough. You don't need 3 or 4 more colors thrown in, because the beauty of the wood stands out and turns that gray into a richer, crisper version of itself. It's just the perfect yin to gray's yang.
White Wood Trim Is a ClassicWith Pantone's Color of the Year as Classic Blue, other shades that are coming into trend include classic colors like hunter green, chocolate brown, blush, and warm-toned gray.
Many older homes have dark-stained woodwork which can make rooms without much natural light look dim and small. If this is the type of room you have on your hands, painting your trim white can help liven it up.
To make wood trim look more current and fresh, I suggest staying FAR AWAY from any very warm tone on the wall. Nothing is going to make your dark wood trim look more orangey or “dated” than choosing a warm color tone on your walls (yellow, tan, orange, red etc..).
The key to selecting paint colors to pair with dark wood trim is the following: go really light and bright or really dark and moody. Do not pick paint colors with lots of yellow or orange under tones as it will make the trim look dirty and dingy. Equally muddy colors will do the same thing.
Other paint colors that would look beautiful with honey oak wood trim are warm grays with green or bronze undertones. In bathrooms and bedrooms, blue-greens can also look lovely. Stay far away from any beiges with cool-pink undertones and grays with true blue or violet undertones.
I have painted oak trim white many times for clients and my own home, which had the original dark trim throughout. Painting everything white will make your living space a lot brighter. When done right, painted oak looks really nice, and the grainy profile of the wood can be smoothed out with additional prep work.
What Paint Colors Go With Gray Furniture?
- Manitou Blue is the “in” color now and even a darker navy is an excellent choice but just about any blue will look amazing with gray.
- Fired Brick red will be the hue for you if you want a bolder more modern feel.
The key to mixing woods is keeping the undertones consistent. Woods with warm undertones will look yellow or red - think Cherry, Mahogany, and Hickory. These woods will work well together, even if they vary in darkness and grain. Cool toned woods will look a little bit grey, like Ash, Maple, Poplar, or Pine.
I suggest you Google "what colors goes with pine green" - there are some really neat colors shown from a shade of orange, yellow/gold to a shade of purple. Good Luck! Gosh ther are so many color combos. Golds, gray, beige, yellow,white,even some blues.
Brown and gray are both neutrals, and they appear together way more than you may have noticed (nature, for example). So, yes, they can be a perfect pairing – and they also work well with many other colors.
Neutral and cool greys and greiges work really well with wood trim to neutralize their warmth- which can sometimes be too much when you have a lot of wood in your space. Grays and greiges will make the space feel much more modern, and if you stay on the light side it will still brighten your space.
Grey walls in a medium tone pair perfectly with a light gray sofa, dark gray rug, and dark grey furniture.
