Grellow, the Newest Color Craze to Hit the Design World

There are always popular colors in fashion that come and go along with the seasons. In the design world this is also the trend; although in the design world, these colors usually last longer than a season.

Whether as a combination using gray with yellow accents, or as its own solid color, Grellow (grey + yellow) is one of the hottest colors (or color combinations) of this year. So hot. in fact, that CB2 (a division of Crate and Barrel) added Grellow as a color/finish for some of their funiture. Check out their modern dresser in grellow. Others have gotten creative with grellow, like using this color on an antique upholstered headboard.

Designers and homeowners alike are pulling shades of grays and yellows together to create relaxing bedroom environments and happy, inviting kitchens and living rooms.  The serene quality of gray as a backdrop (try Benjamin Moore's Metropolitan AC690) matched with sunny yellow accent pieces (like this Ikea Trollsta table) can enliven any room and welcomingly boost your mood as soon as you walk in.

If you are looking to redo one of your interior spaces, consider adding grellow to the mix!
