Plain and simple. White! =] It'll give a ';brightness'; to the room...despite the grey carpet, and the grey and black in the blinds. Don't paint your walls a darker color. It'll make the room wayyy smaller! =]I have light grey carpet and need help deciding what color to paint my bedroom walls?
Goes well with off white and darker shades of blue some pastels.
A medium Grey with a black tone to it (rather than brown or green). That way it is in between the lt grey and the black stripe and will make the white stand out which is what you want with the black stripe.
Try looking foe a freize carpet that has grey and black tones(a mingled look) . One to look at is Kathy Ireland home collection 2 tone swirl, color bello...
I'd go with a nice red/burgundy.
Why not take a colour out of your bedspread or something else in the bedroom that you like? Personally I think white walls and a grey carpet are too pale, put some colour in your life and wake up refreshed. Take a picture to your local paint store and ask their opinion.
Dark blue, acid green or a shiny silver. I think these would be young and striking.
since it's a bedroom i would do a restful blue but you have to choose a color that makes you go ahhh .... as i say to nearly everybody on YA, it's a good idea to invest in large paint chips (18';x18';) they are like 4 dollars each but they give you a good sense of color on an expanse. (if you dont want to spend on chips use a solid bath towel or solid fabric because color truly needs to be seen on an expanse.) ... feel free to use free chips but be aware those little chips can fool the eye and worse be costly and aggravating in time and money spent. remember nowadays stores like Lowe's offer color matching with a scanner gun and a paint ';computer';. all you need to do is bring in your sample for the clerk to scan, the larger the better. you can also invest in paint samples and white boards but i think that method's more expensive than the large chips method. happy painting!
Light, very light yellow goes well with grey and is soothing and happy for a calming bedroom. It will also coordinate with your other accessories.
I would go with a darker gray or maybe a blue hue. Any shade of blue should look good.
why not paint your room a darker shade of gray with black trim and make the shelves black as well. I am sure you can find plenty of black or gray or black and gray comforters, sheets, pillow cases, etc to finish off the entire room.





If you stay with just two colors your room will ALWAYS look fairly neat and orderly. Not to mention that people will notice the overall room as soon as they step inside it.





Just remember this ... its paint. If you dont like it ... its paint!





One other thing to consider is that whatever answers you get on here (including mine) is our opinion but you are the one that has to sleep in the room ... and light gray is a fairly neuteral color ... so the correct answer is: WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE COLOR??
You have a very neutral pallete so pretty much anything would match, but I think periwinkle (light purplish blue) would look awesome with the gray.
stay with your earthtones holla back
