If you want a living space that will remain as on trend in 20 years’ time as it is today, then decorating in shades of grey is the answer. Here are 10 reasons why a grey sofa or sofa bed from Willow & Hall will ensure your entertaining space always stays in style.

Grey goes with everything

Just like with black and white, grey is a neutral colour. Whether you pair it with pastel accents or bright colour pops, grey will never look out of place.

It’s effortlessly stylish

Grey is synonymous with quality materials such as slate, so introducing it into a living space instantly sets a sophisticated tone.

It can be contemporary or traditional

Grey is one of the few colours that can lend itself as equally well in modern surroundings as it does in period and character homes.

Grey enlarges smaller spaces

Faced with furnishing a smaller sized room? Pale grey tones will keep the space feeling light and airy.

It doesn’t overpower

The great thing about grey is it doesn’t dominate. So, even if you opt for a 7 or 8 seater corner sofa upholstering in grey will ensure it doesn’t appear overbearing.

Grey loves a pattern

Fans of bold prints might not be sold on the idea of a grey sofa. But the truth is grey is the ideal base on which to build up colour. Great news if you’re a fan of clashing patterns and statement pieces.

Its shade spectrum is off the charts

From sultry slates that are great for adding drama, to serene pebbles and perfectly balanced midtones. The spectrum of grey shades available is all encompassing, offering something to suit every taste.

It’s pet and child friendly

Darker shades of grey expertly conceal accidental spillages or stains caused by mucky hands or paws. Plus, it can be easily spot cleaned making it an ideal sofa colour for households with kids and pets.

Grey is an investment

If you’re going to invest in a furniture piece as pivotal as a sofa. You want to ensure your big-ticket purchase won’t date quickly. Grey is the one colour you can count on not to go out of fashion.
