Elevating Your Home with Golden Colors
Symbolizing luxury, warmth, and enduring style, gold can be the perfect accent to bring sophistication to your Twin Cities home.
Modern design trends are taking into account natural materials, warm and bold colors, and mixing and matching elements and finishes.
The secret to designing with gold colors is understanding your design’s tones and complementary hues. Our team at Shelly’s Interior Concepts can guide you in integrating golden colors into your home's aesthetic through Hunter Douglas window treatments and hardware. If you’re ready to add luxurious warmth to your home in Saint Michael or the surrounding areas, contact Shelly’s Interior Concepts for an in-home consultation today!
What Colors Make Gold?
Pure gold occurs when you mix undertones of rose, yellow, brown, orange, and add a reflective white highlight. This creates variations such as matte gold, rose gold, antique gold, and polished gold. When it comes to these golden hues, design application matters. Different finishes, like matte, brushed, satin, and polished, interact with light differently.
The first step to choosing the proper hardware or accent piece is understanding what colors go with your gold accents. Need help selecting the perfect finish? Schedule an in-home design consultation in Maple Grove, Plymouth, the Twin Cities, or nearby communities; we bring samples right to you.
Complementary Palettes: What Colors Go With Gold?
When you have a gold shade to design around, it's crucial to understand the complementary palettes or color pairings. For:
- Neutrals: Seeking a clean, modern look? Gold pairs flawlessly with sophisticated neutrals, such as cream, charcoal, and dove grey.
- Jewel Tones: For drama, such as in an opulent living room, gold complements deep jewel tones like sapphire blue, emerald green, or burgundy.
- Cool Colors: Pairing gold with cool colors, such as soft grey-blue, prevents the room from feeling overwhelmingly warm.
Once your complementary colors are selected, they can guide your window treatment and fabric options. For example, you may choose a Hunter Douglas shade fabric with subtle gold threads or a fabric in a color that complements a nearby gold fixture. If you are uncertain about where to start in your design, our team is ready to provide expert, personalized advice.
