Grey laminate flooring with grey walls is a very hot topic of conversation these days. Whether you’re renovating your home or moving into a rental, these are big bullet points to be considered. I read a recent thread about this and the varying opinions are numerous!
For instance, many agree with the point that says: I cannot believe we are in 2022 and premium-priced-rentals still have carpet in them. To many, this is unfathomable. No matter how much deep cleaning you do, aren’t the carpets just a haven for bacteria, bugs, dust and pet dander?
Not to mention, there are now super competitive and affordable prices for vinyl / laminate floors. Let’s give a big hoorah for how realistic the options are. And secondly, let’s argue that the maintenance involved for keeping carpets reasonably clean, is more expensive than just installing laminate floors once.
This leads to our main topic of conversation, grey laminate flooring with grey walls. One of the main, neutral color-of-choices is grey. Well, it can become very difficult to decide how to pair grey walls with grey laminate floors.
Let’s discuss a few different options of grey laminate flooring with grey walls, and see how people have pulledl it off successfully
Grey Laminate Flooring Family Room and Kitchen
This room is very appealing and easy on the eyes. Although it is very monotone, the lighting and upholstery helps it still feel cozy. By adding a light colored sofa and a light rug, the room looks like and bright without being “All-white.”
Also, distinct attention was given to the placement of can lights. Notice the undercount-lighting under the bar. And the internal lighting inside the upper cabinets. These small and affordable details help this home say ‘Wow!’
Greige Laminate Flooring Workout Room
Let’s be honest, there are plenty of grey tones out there and “greige” is most definitely one of them. This is a gray that is warm and close to tan/beige. But, it loyally still falls in the grey category because of how well it can be paired with a truer-grey counterpart.
This workout room has wonderful natural lighting which helps any space not be depressing. The warmer grey laminate flooring with the warm grey walls is pulled off wonderfully. Because of all the black equipment, it is nice to have this neutral backdrop.
Dark Grey Walls and Laminate Flooring
This example is a price example of how to help grey laminate flooring pop against grey walls. Additionally, this flooring is available on Amazon here, for your convenience! Bay Breeze Vinyl Plank Flooring. If this is the look you are going for, I would suggest balance out this room with light furniture and bedding. It will help things pop against the darker wall.
Medium Grey Wall and Grey Laminate Floors
This room is a winning combination because of the sky-light in the ceiling. It allows a blank slate to design however needed. Consistently, I’m seeing a light grey laminate floor mixed with a medium-gray-toned wall color. The wall is definitely darker than the floors and yet it is not charcoal grey. A close example to this may be “Dovetail Pine,” located at Home Depot.
Modern Tone on Tone Aesthetic – Grey Floors and Walls
This is a bit extreme! And I’m not going to lie, it’s not my cup of tea. Nevertheless, the overwhelming textured-grey-walls make a statement one way or another. I am confident this room could be warmed up with a nice, light-colored, shag area rug. And perhaps add a few lamps too!
Grey Laminate Floor Kitchen – Dark Wood Veneer Cabinets
This could be the updated grey kitchen you are looking for! I’m seeing cool-toned dark, wood-veneer cabinetry. It is probably custom cabinetry made off a cad-drawing. And hopefully, this is the kind that can be manufactured VERY QUICKLY! I say that, because Covid delays have really wreaked havoc for home owners, renovators and builders alike.
Actual Dark-Grey Hardwoods, Visual For Inspiration
This is a beautiful combination space of kitchen and dining. Notice how the hardwoods are a deep grey-toned wood. And the walls are also grey. I love how they have warmed up the space with deep-cherry and walnut woods. They have the upholstered dining chairs in cream and then pops of red and yellow accents.
If you are seeking a visual for inspiration, this is a great combination to imitate
This concludes our visuals of grey laminate flooring with grey walls. I hope it redeems a little bit of what is out there. And I hope you’re inspired to make beautiful the combination you have to work with!
