Colour Trend – Gold

With shimmering accessories and glistening wall coverings, the latest gold interior colour trend adds an opulent and rich interior ambiance to a wide range of decors and settings. Glittering metallic interiors are bang on trend this season due to their illuminating and sophisticated appearance.

Gold items have long been used in interior designs from opulent roman palaces to regency style buildings. This fabulous tone is a versatile and elegant colour that transcends the changing times.

Walls

A golden feature wall can add a shimmering and eye-catching focal point in any interior space. As a metallic colour tone, it not only provides a central colour palette but also gives a sense of light and reflective space that works well in more compact or dark interior areas. From tiling to wallpaper there are a vast number of ways to introduce this colour into your home. Gold wall finishes look wonderful partnered with cream, white and sand colour tones or can be paired with monochrome designs for a more opulent and lustrous interior finish.

Fabrics

Gold fabric is an ideal way of adding zoned areas of colour to your living room, bedroom or dining room. Cushions create a splash of golden tones across a bed or sofa area and can be selected in plain and patterned prints for a visually appealing interior addition. Curtains, occasional chairs and bedding can also create a glittering focal point in a home and provides a focalised area of colour in an otherwise plain or neutral interior space.

Mirrors

A gold framed mirror will create a bright and illuminating area on a feature wall or above a sideboard or mantelpiece. Gold and mirrored surfaces work well together due to their reflective and glistening properties and can be adopted into both plain and bold interior designs. From sleek and contemporary designer styles to chic and classic baroque designs like our  Gold leaf overmantle mirror you are sure to find a luxurious mirror to suit your home.

Accessories

Gold accessories are the perfect way of adding this sumptuous colour trend into your home and can be seamlessly added to your current interior decor without the need to redecorate. Lamps are a perfect way of adding a sense of opulent light to your home and will create an eye-catching feature on a lamp table, sideboard or bedside to provide a functional and fabulous space. Vases, bowls, ornaments and photo frames can be used to accentuate a windowsill, table top or dresser and will provide a dash of metallic lustre to any home interior.
