I'm pleased to bring you a few more suggestions as to how you can really up your #greyplague game. First of all, try an all grey and white exterior and hard landscaping. Make sure any grass is actually astroturf, and consider painting your shed grey and white too. 
Limit any colour in your grey and white living room to a plastic christmas tree.
Make sure the big light in your kitchen is so powerful that all you can see is blinding white light bouncing off of everything. Accessorise with gloss black, remember white and black = grey.
I have often wondered if something intriguing lay within this little copper-roofed heptagonal offshoot of Basil Spence's Great Michael Rise council housing (whose distinctive walls made from granite setts are just lovely in the light).
The answer though is that it's actually divided in the middle and is simply two main door bungalow houses. I often thought it must be a chapel or something! espc.com/property/30-an…
New Lane / Great Michael Rise are I think a very interesting and successful experiment in how you can do a mix of council and private housing on a small, awkward site and mix both the modern and the traditional styles and materials. And they still look great.
Fair play to the enthusiasm of the estate agent who currently has this listed as a "leafy courtyard development"
(whispers, the "leaves" are there to try and mask the Lothian Buses garage which you can see over the back fence)

Ok, now *this* makes it a courtyard development!
Jacquard loom cards as a municipal housing aesthetic.
It's an unusual approach certainly to to list the same property simultaneously at £1.6m and £1.25m.
