Grey or Gray?

Does anybody know if it's grey or gray? I see it both ways and get confused! Either way, I'm dreaming of grey walls in our kitchen! With our closing date approaching, I've started thinking about how we're going to make our beautiful new house a home.

We elected to have everything painted white, instead of selecting a taupe for the house. Here's the thing- whatever color you choose is also painted on your ceiling. I REALLY wanted white ceilings, so it was the choice we had to make. Also, I think it's hard to choose a color before living in the home. You want to figure out how light works in your house to ensure you're not going too dark or light.

Let's have a recap on our new kitchen: white outer cabinets, kona island, bianco antico counters, chunky nickle hardware. Visit this post for pictures. The below kitchen sort of has the same colors as ours. Do you like it?

I love the idea of painting our walls a soft grey. What do you think? Here's one of the shades I like.

Ive been looking at a lot of design sites and the home decor section of pinterest lately and i am loving grey walls and accents. It is a great neutral to use thats not beige!
i think that kitchen is great inspiration.
