The Best Neutral Colors to Match With Gray Floors & White Walls

Beige

• Beige is a traditional neutral color for almost anything in the home. Most shades of beige are warm. Don't be fooled by thinking beige is boring. The color comes in many shades and hues and when used with window treatments, pillows, rugs and furniture, beige brings a sense of stability to rooms. Light-colored furnishings in pine or oak offer a pleasing combination with gray floors and white walls. Use window treatments with beige stripes to bring character into rooms and add rugs with the same shade of beige to pull the look together.

Sage

• Sage is a light greenish-gray color that coordinates well with gray and white. It brings a much-needed color into the mix without upsetting the balance of the mood. Sage is neutral enough that it will not make a room feel overwhelmed with color. Try it on sofa and chair cushions as well as window treatments that reach from the ceiling to the floor. With plants in rooms, this color combination will make your guests feel relaxed and refreshed.

Black

• Black is bold but it is also neutral. With dark floors and light walls, black furnishings bring stability and balance to rooms. Black also goes with many styles of décor -- from modern to country. Used moderately, black stripes in window treatments and pillows bring contrast to gray and white rooms. Black trim, ironwork and frames will unify a room without being overwhelming.

Gray

• A shade of gray lighter than the color of your floor will coordinate wonderfully with white walls. This look is modern as well as clean and you'll find there are endless possibilities for the shades of gray you can choose. Use different hues to add character to your rooms and find rugs, vases and fabrics with texture to add depth.
