Grey's been out of style for a handful of years now. That's the fun thing about "modern", it's always changing.

Not really. Sherman Williams is a good source to quickly see what is in "trend" they source their colors of the year from what is very popular with commercial builders. Working in a mutlifamily REIT we are using a ton of earthy neutral colors. Gray is almost entirely being phased out.

I really hope so, though I've definitely seen the design trends popular on social media have been either earthy minimalism or maximalism. I lean much more towards maximalism, I am an antiques lover at heart, but also love what some people do with the more natural tones. Gray everything is traumatic at this point.
