Accent chair color

Whether you consider one chair or a pair of chairs, you should choose a color that would match perfectly the particular shade of gray, the background colors, and the room decor. We have prepared a list of color matching between the two pieces of furniture. We suggest you scroll through them, stick to the one that suits you, and get inspired. 

Red accent chair

The combination of a gray couch and red chair will work perfectly for you if you want to set a lively atmosphere. As red is a bold color, it should be used in smaller amounts, where such a detail as a chair next to a couch is a perfect example. 

The red color will bring drama to the gray couch and shape the picture by offering the room a pleasant and elegant atmosphere.

Yellow accent chair

A chair of this color will enliven the space and bring warmth into the original gray environment. Combination of gray and yellow works especially well within a modern or contemporary style. Therefore, you will be in trend if you consider a yellow accent chair next to a gray couch. 

This contrast will set a balance between two concepts: something stable and something new. Thus, a splash of yellow will enrich the gray background, brightening the room and completing the picture.

Teal accent chair

Consider a teal accent chair next to a gray couch if you want to bring some drama to the environment while preserving calmness. You probably wonder how it is possible to keep these contrastive concepts in the same room. It is if we speak about gray and teal. Where the boldness of teal ends, the stability of gray starts, leading to a fascinating contrast. 

We suggest you opt for this combination if you want to make a statement. Furthermore, it has become really popular, and you will be in trend.

Orange accent chair

It is not a secret that orange goes well with black and white. Therefore, there is no doubt that a combination of gray and orange will look perfect. Gray is a neutral color, and it is closer to blue and purple, which are complementary to orange. 

Furthermore, orange will offer a new sparkle to the gray couch. Don’t worry. Orange will not surpass gray. It depends on the amount of color. The one considered here is perfectly balanced as orange is used for the smallest unit, the chair. 

Soft-pink accent chair

Pink goes well with neutral colors, such as gray. When it comes to soft pink, the combination is perfect. A pink chair will bring a new sparkle to the gray couch and complement it uniquely. Although they are different colors, they will lead together to a smooth contrast that will bring comfort to your room.

There is more to add. This combination has become more popular and integrates perfectly in any style. We suggest you consider it if you are looking for a stylish way to set a comfortable environment.

Cream accent chair

It does not sound like a bold step, but the result will be fascinating. Cream color will fit perfectly gray as both are neutral colors, and the contrast will not be visible, but the combination will lead to a perfect result. 

If they are balanced appropriately, the cream chair will look like a constituent part of the gray couch, thus, setting a combination of stability and comfort.
