The color grey lends interiors an elegant formality that is subtle without being overly conservative. Grey tends to enhance creativity, which can make it a good color for offices and studios. Grey is also favored as an executive color. As a neutral, grey works beautifully in combination with whites and darker neutrals. On the other hand, the psychological effects of gray also make it a very good background color for more adventurous room color schemes: the color gray can really make other colors 'sing'.

In Feng Shui, Grey colour belongs to the element of Metal and it is best used in the following feng shui Ba-Gua areas: West (Creativity & Children), Northwest (Helpful People & Blessings) or North (Career & Path in Life).
