Photos courtesy of Desire to Inspire - my go-to interiors blog...In keeping with my theme, it appears to be English. Gotta say, I love orange and grey mashups.
So, whatcha think? Could you live here? Does this room envelope you with its manly elegance? Does it remind you of a vampire lair? Do tell...

oh my god, that color combination of a slate/moody french grey with pops of orange is basically how i envisioned my living room when the bf and i moved to our apartment 3 years ago. our dark grey couch is, in fact, done in this exact color combo with deep orange throw cushions. yes i am a total design dork but this is one of my favorite color combinations - interior decor, clothing, you name it! :)
ReplyDeleteMy bedroom is a light grey called silver fox and orange. I love it!
ReplyDeleteI love grey, but I don't love orange. However, I do like the room, which goes to show why I'm not an interior decorator, because sometimes I have no imagination like that. ;-) I tend to gravitate towards grey and green/blue/burgundy personally, but I think that those colors would be too little contrast in a room like that. my bedroom is currently a bright grassy green, and someday (*snort*) I think I'll make some cream and charcoal grey accents for it--like curtains, pillows, and a duvet cover. Probably finish them about 3 weeks before we plan to sell the house though. LOL!
ReplyDeleteI'm currently loving grey anything - this is great! It sort of reminds me, though, of that run-down mansion that the vampires hung out in during season 3 of buffy. That just makes it more awesome, though!
ReplyDeleteHubba hubba on that room!
ReplyDeleteI love gray and orange, but I prefer my living room light and bright and unsexy ;), so mine is a lighter shade of gray.
ReplyDeleteDark colors on the walls combined with some pops of color always look very appealing an striking to me. Perfect for a bedroom where you don't plan to spend all your time sleeping.

I thought those interior shots were of your living room for a second!
ReplyDeleteI love orange and grey, especially tangerine and a cold steel-blue grey.
Put me down for YES! Grey is one of my favorite colors to decorate with!
ReplyDeleteLove it!! Could definitely live there :)
ReplyDeleteOMG... I heart grey. Always and forever. I was on such a grey and yellow kick for a while, but I also love it with orange or with a punch of cobalt.
ReplyDeleteLike the grey, but that COUCH. Pefection. It gave me chills.
ReplyDeleteI love that room, and the couch is just perfect in it, as are the other pops of color. I definitely want the lamp. But would like it better as a bedroom or sitting room off a bedroom than as my living room. I think I want more light, although perhaps that is just because I already live in a dark house.
ReplyDeleteThis has been my fav color combo for a couple of years now. It's regal. Love this room.
ReplyDeleteSophie: I know!
ReplyDeleteErika: I love that name.
CGC: Orange is one of my favourite colours. I think of it as a neutral :-)
Patty: It is a bit scary lair, no?
Monkey: I knew you'd see it my way.
Roses: I see your point. I do think of this as a place in a cold climate. And a winter room.
Janice: Oh, glad I bamboozled you for a second!
Kristin: I have grey accents in my living room...
Suzy: I know, I know!
Stacy: I love grey with yellow! Or silver with yellow.
Sewn: I know, it's awesome.
Mardel: I can see how it would work better as a bedroom or a library.
Libby: It is regal!
Better on walls than in my hair!
ReplyDeleteWendy: Indeed. If only it were as easy to fix one's living room, as one's hair.
