Best Rooms to Use Grey Wood-Look Tile

Grey tile can be used in any room of the home, but the kitchen and living room are the two most popular choices. Wood-look floors can add a touch of rustic style to your kitchen, or infuse your living space with warmth and elegance.

Using grey wood-look tile in your bathroom is another rising trend that might pique your interest. Since bathroom color schemes often tend to be cool, light and soothing, we can’t think of a better flooring option than soft grey porcelain planks.

Color Palettes to Pair with Grey Wood-Look Tile

Grey wood-look tile generally pairs well with most wall colors and décor palettes, since it’s fairly neutral and versatile. One thing to consider when choosing a color palette is whether your grey tile is warm or cool toned. If it has bluish undertones it’s a cool grey, and if it has yellow or orange undertones it’s a warm hue.

With this in mind, aim to choose wall colors that complement your floor’s tone. For example, a dark, cool grey wood-look floor looks great with pale blue walls or a soft silver-grey. A warm grey tile generally pairs well with colors that are also warm, such as “greige,” cream, pale yellow, etc.
