In the world of interior design, including custom closets, the color gray is popular. Gray evokes calm and order, and it seamlessly blends with a number of color schemes and styles. From minimalistic, contemporary reach-in closets to warm, traditional walk-ins, there’s a shade of gray to suit every aesthetic. At Strickland’s Home, we have closet organization systems available in over 10 shades of gray. Here are a few to consider for custom closets.
Breakwater: Breakwater is a neutral shade of gray, almost 50/50 black and white, with no wood grain pattern. Because of this, it makes a great blank palette for a burst of color and contrast, like in this transitional walk-in with modern gold accents. It can also easily be cooled down with white marble surfaces and silver accents, like this contemporary walk-in.
Morning Mist: Morning mist is a light green-gray color with subtly varied wood grain, a perfect palette for a beach house entryway or mudroom on Wrightsville. This color does well with other natural neutrals and simple decor for a farmhouse or shaker-style custom closets.
Driftwood: Driftwood is a rich medium-warm gray with subtly varied wood grain in tan and gray. It’s a great wood grain for a relaxed guest bedroom closet or for a welcoming walk-in closet. This shade can easily match a rustic, natural look for the Cape Fear Riverside or a more traditional, relaxed look for a Southport home.
Mackinac: Mackinac is a medium gray with a large, varied wood grain pattern. This combination of traditional wood grain with bold contrast makes for an eye-catching contemporary walk-in. Combined with white shelving and walls, light to medium grays can also make the closet space seem larger.
