Colour Trend – Firewood

This winter why not add some elegance and warmth to your home interior with a stylish FIREWOOD coloured colour scheme by Benjamin Moore. This paint colour is a soft and dusky mocha brown tone that can be paired with a wide variety of bold and neutral colour palettes within your home interior. This earthen colour scheme is perfect for creating a cosy ambiance in any room of the home.

For a classic interior finish, why not team firewood with rich cream and caramel tones for a neutral yet tonal home interior or add accents of red, orange and mustard for a more autumnal look and feel. If you prefer a more modern feel then why not pair firewood with deep charcoal and pewter hues as well as light dove grey for a rustic Scandinavian style look within your chosen room. For a soft and feminine take on this colour scheme then partner firewood with muted peach, pink, blue or mint for a hint of floral elegance that is refined and delicate. Natural wallpapers work extremely well with a firewood colour scheme and patterns featuring trees, flowers and leaves will create a focal point on any feature wall, fireplace or alcove.

Soft furnishings are a great way of introducing this colour into your home interior as they can be used to create areas of tonal colour and texture within your room. Soft satin or velvet curtains will look great in this colour tone and can be teamed with metallic gold or copper tassels and beading for added glamour and opulence. Partner these with some baroque patterned cushions in a variety of gold and brown hues that will transform any seating or sleeping area. For a more natural finish opt for firewood linen curtains and partner with cotton and linen cushions in cream, chocolate and firewood colour schemes featuring simple leaf and tree patterns , floral prints or geometric designs for a more modern and eye-catching look.

Oak furniture is sure to compliment the natural warmth of a firewood colour scheme and will create a warm and welcoming feel in any room of the home. Opt for chunky golden oak items for a classic farmhouse style design or more modern light or smoked oak items that will create a contemporary cottage look within your chosen room. Cream painted furniture will compliment the earthen hues of a firewood colour scheme and is perfect for providing a sense of light within a smaller or more compact room while still maintaining a sense of warmth and cosiness. Grey painted furniture will create a contrasting yet complimentary finish alongside this natural colour scheme and is perfect for creating a modern yet rustic feel within your home. You could even mix and match cream and grey painted furniture within the same room for a more quirky and vintage inspired feel.
