Play with Gray Tones

Navy Walls
Remain simple and chic with navy walls. Furthermore, they create a stylish charm by simply allowing the hue to be the statement of the space. They are also an excellent alternative to darker walls, instead of using hues of black use navy. It brings out that sleekness while not being as dark.
Take it Outside

Burnt Orange
Burnt orange is the perfect complimentary hue. Furthermore, when paired with a diverse range of shades of blue the color tends to bring a summery vibe that is difficult to miss. Add a few hints of metallic to complete the look.
