I love color add pops of brightness when using gray tones

Have you recently noticed that everything in interior design is gray.  All the magazines, furniture stores and fabric companies are showing mostly all gray and beige tones.  I have to say I HATE this.  Gray is great as a base mixed with pops of yellow, lime green or orange but gray alone is the color of depression.  Don't get caught up in fads.  Gray today gone tomorrow.  Pick the colors you like and make them work with the current lack luster trends
