4. The most vital and vibrant tone, the perfect pair of grays

A mottled gray exterior allows this home to blend into the wooded surroundings, while bold red trim gives it a big wow factor. A tip, if you want a more natural look, opt for a semi-transparent stain that shows the wood grain instead of a smooth finish.

The beauty of gray is that when used subtly, as is the case with these painted chairs, it stands out, especially when paired with bright colors like this cobalt blue rug, although red would also be perfect.
