Ton sur Ton in gray for the living room; the most beautiful variations

Looking for beautiful wall paints for a partly gray wall in the living room, I came across ton sur ton pictures in gray for the living room. I really like working with a color in this way, but unfortunately I am not alone in the house. Even though I determine a lot in our interior design, Frank also likes it a bit. And he likes to combine gray walls with other colors. Luckily I'm not that difficult, haha, so I can think of something else. So it will be gray with us, combined with black, white and oak.

Grey in the living room, tone-on-tone or not?

Well, I already mentioned that above. No tone-on-tone gray in our living room, but gray wall paint combined with black home accessories and light oak tones in furniture. The color of the gray wall paint is also reflected in the concrete window sills, the dining table in concrete ciré and the gray PVC floor that we are going to lay, so I can't complain. Gray enough at home.

What-colour gray wall-paint on the wall?

I'm sure I want gray on some walls. But I don't know what color gray yet. And that's partly because the gray floor isn't there yet. To start with, the plasterer still has to come, but once he has been, I would also like to have the new floor laid before I choose the gray color on the wall. Because if you go for tone-on-tone, you can actually combine all shades of gray. But because we don't do that now, I still want the color gray to match a bit, or to stand out very much.

Enough about my ideas, below you will find some other cool ideas from ton sur ton in gray for the living room.

Why go for tone-on-tone (in gray or any other color) ?

Ton sur ton ensures unity and tranquility in your home, whether you opt for gray in the living room or, for example, white in the bedroom. As long as you work with one and the same color, you create unity and you can immediately see that in the appearance. If you would like to radiate unity in your interior, this way of styling is just your thing.

How can you best apply tone-on-tone?

The tone-on-tone style comes out best if you let the color gray come back in various materials. Use different shades of gray from light to dark and the diversity of materials.

For example, opt for a beautiful dark gray leather sofa that you dress up with a mix of cushions in different shades of gray. For the cushions you can use materials such as cotton mixed with wool and do you like a nice plaid on the couch? Then a nice gray chunky knitted plaid also looks great.

You match the color of the walls and the right paint to your sofa, but you can actually go in all directions. If you have a dark gray sofa, ton sur ton fits very well with a light gray color on the wall so that you have more contrast. Do you have a light gray sofa, one that you can't keep clean with children? Then it is nice to put a dark gray paint on the wall. But the same color gray can also look great on the wall, just look.

And how about a cool gray wallpaper in your living room? The below is not completely tone-on-tone because of the blue desk, but hey someone else can just find it blue-gray.

And if ton sur ton is a bit too much for you - just like Frank - you can quickly create a different atmosphere with all that gray as you see above with a simple rug (pink in this case).

Are you tone-on-tone, or not at all?
