Gray and Gorgeous Home: Classic, Timeless Style
Creating a beautiful home from the ground up is one of the most satisfying parts of my work and this STUNNING home was no exception! Working with a palette of predominantly gray, white and black, we created a home with warmth, class and the perfect backdrop for the homeowners exceptional art collection.
The colour of the exterior is similar to Benjamin Moore Dior Gray with stark white trim and dark gray ledgestone. The striking black double front door is a focal point to this beautiful tone-on-tone home.

The black marble inset at the front door provides some protection from muddy boots. We also painted the interior of the front door black as well as the top of the stair railing to tie the 2 areas together.

Hi Joe, sorry I can’t – it was several years ago from a different supplier!
Where can I find those awesome lights over the kitchen island?

Hi Dixie! Now it was QUITE a few years ago and they actually came from Costco! Amazing, since the walk-in closet light was $800 – these bad boys were affordable and did the trick!
Gorgeous home!!

Beautiful home! What height were the ceilings for the decorative trim? Thank you!

Oh it was many moons ago now, but I believe the ceilings went from 9′ up to 11′, depending on the room!
I really like the way you did to this house inside and outside!
Do you know where I can get the siding from? the shape and the color are excellent!
I love the BM Dior Gray!! We are in the process of building and I am desperately trying to find the perfect gray. My builder only uses Sherwin Williams colors. Any idea if SW has a color very close to Dior Gray?
Thanks!

YOu know, Dior Gray is wicked cool, but I’ll warn you that’s not quite the perfect gray as it does have quite a bit of purple in it (understatement)! If you like that general look though, check out SW Pewter Cast, Summit Gray and Gray Shingle. I don’t know what you’re using it for (interior/exterior/whole home/1 room) but these colours can be a bit more liveable as the undertones drop back 🙂
What color are the windows? Are they white or black? You have any pics the whole exterior of the house?
