Ahh, grey, a longtime love for me. It's fabulous on its own, but really sings when paired with another color. My current favorite pairing is grey and orange as featured in this fabulous nursery.
Kirsten of 6th Street Design School came up with this fabulous color combination for a client's nursery. We love her use of bold patterns of all kinds but it all works together effortlessly. The cool blue walls provide the perfect backdrop. For some more photos of this grey and orange nursery, take your green with envy self over to 6th Street Design School.

Nice - although for some reason on my browser the wall color looks less like gray than a pale green or aqua.
yes! it does look like a pale aqua green color.
I wouldn't call this room a nursery but I think it looks great!
They say in the post that the walls are a cool blue color.
Not sure where the first two posters read that it was a grey wall, but it is most definitely not!
This room is fantastic! That colour combination is so lovely and fresh, and not just nursery/child's room appropriate - I could easily use the same palette in my bedroom!
Also agree this doesn't look like a nursery. Not sure what age you think nurseries are for, but this is more of a kids room to me.
this is my three year old son's room!
isn't kirsten awesome?
THANK YOU for featuring it!!
and yes the walls are definitely aqua. i went through 8 different shades before I found the one I love!

I love gray and orange, and 'gray and orange' rooms appear properly on my mac. I just think this is more like AQUA and RED.
Could you please tell me exactly what aqua paint that is? I painted one of our bathrooms the wrong aqua.
I love the fox pillow. Where is it from?
Found it from the blog post. LOVE it.
LOVE this room. Just perfect. Great job!
Love this room. Any idea where the bed is from?
the bed sort of looks like Ikea Malm. http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/20120582/#/00214548
Love that rug (and the paint color)! Amazing!
