Gold color interior

-->

At all times, gold was treated especially, since from ancient times it symbolized such concepts as wealth, wealth, luxury, power. They were decorated with palaces and castles, as well as royal chambers. Gold has incredible magical attractive power, its luster does not cease to enchant to this day. Today it is again at the top of fashion, which is used by modern interior designers.

Golden interior implies compliance with a number of rules

If you create a "golden stylization" in the room, you must adhere to some certain points:

it is extremely cautious to approach the issue of filling the interior with large massive gold pieces of furniture, as well as tiles and other gilded items, otherwise the visual volume of the room will decrease, moreover, oversaturation with gold can cause concern and even can suppress with its powerful energy;
gold textiles in the interior can be used with less caution, however, a prerequisite is a harmonious combination of all the details together (furniture upholstery with gold threads, all kinds of decorative pillows, curtains, bed linen with gold embroidery, etc.);
in a golden interior, more than ever, a sense of proportion is important and you should definitely adhere to one style: either it will be a magnificent baroque palace interior, or rococo, or maybe art deco or oriental Arabic style - it all depends on the preferences and tastes of the owners

Must have a sense of style

The golden interior has an extraordinary attraction if this shade is present only on accessories, for example, candlesticks, lamps, mirrors or picture frames, but not on large interior items. Gold looks great as a decoration for furniture, for example, on luxurious beds with gilded legs and backs, on dressers or cabinets in the form of golden handles - all this unobtrusively gives the interior a touch of aristocracy and wealth.

If you nevertheless use large furniture with gilding, it is best to choose a muted, dull shade of aged color.

Experienced designers can skillfully fit the gold color into almost any interior style. It is the slightly "shabby" muted shades used on accessories or pieces of furniture that create that amazing romantic cozy atmosphere typical of the style of shabby chic (minimalism). The Baroque style (classic) implies the use of golden hues on textiles or furniture, as well as on elaborate figurines in combination with classic dark tones or vice versa with light shades.

The combination of gold with other colors

The golden interior dictates the perfect combination with other colors. Being warm, gold is "friendly" with all the light shades. For example, if the interior color scheme contains mainly white, beige, peach or light gray tones, in this case, it’s enough to highlight only a few interior elements with gold, for example, use accessories or textiles.

The golden color goes well with the chocolate terracotta interior. It is especially good if at the same time there is wooden furniture, bedspreads or curtains of brown color - gold will create a special additional light and shine. You can also apply gold wallpaper.

But the most spectacular and stylish is the interior, where two colors dominate: gold and black, and the predominance of black is highly desirable in this duet. For example, a black set with gold details looks luxurious, dark bedspreads with golden spots, because such a combination is spectacular in itself. In this regard, additional shades should be selected with extreme caution, and it is best to completely abandon the catchy and bright.

A good gold color is combined with other shades, such as cherry, purple, blue and even turquoise. In addition, today a combination of gold and purple is considered to be very stylish and fashionable.

Golden bedroom

In the bedroom, gold will serve as a great addition, for example, to the oriental style, as well as baroque or art deco. The abundance of accessories with gold will wonderfully fit into the oriental style. Baroque implies elaborate elements, for example, elegant gold stucco molding on the ceiling, frames for mirrors and paintings, lamp shades of lamps. For art deco gold wallpapers that can create an original and festive atmosphere are perfect.

In most cases, bedrooms are decorated in light colors, so in this case, all shades of gold are suitable for decoration.

Golden living room

The living room with elements of gold looks, above all, aristocratic, and the main element in the design is the wallpaper in gold. Accordingly, the furniture in this case should be beige, brown or black. If you make the walls in a light or classic range, then it will be very appropriate to use gilding on textile elements, vases, lamps or furniture surfaces. The main thing is not to forget about the basic rule - asymmetric details visually look much nicer. For example, on one wall, place pictures in a golden frame, and leave the second wall empty. Golden curtains add an element of wealth to the living room, as well as extra light.

Golden bathroom

In the bathroom, elements of gold also add sophistication and aristocracy, however, only in the case of a spacious and bright room. If the room is small, and even dark, the use of gold will only visually narrow the space.

Unusually spectacular golden tint on the details of plumbing (faucets, handles, etc.). It is also advisable to design the bathroom in bright colors, otherwise you will not see the glow of gold. Gold on accessories is also appropriate, for example, on lamps or tiles.

Ten basic gold elements used in the interior

Since gold is a true value, time-tested, it is used, like any other value, not everywhere, but in details. In other words, a sense of restraint and measure is simply necessary. Here are 10 uses for gold in interior design:

furniture - classical gilding on wooden furniture is relevant to this day, however, now a darker and muffled color of shiny metal, the color of "old gold" is used;
frames for paintings or photographs - the most spectacular in the golden frame of the schedule, as well as black and white photographs, and if you want to add drama, you can use the black wall;
mirrors - in harmony with gold, they represent the most classic combination, you can also use a screen from the mirror plates of aged color in a gold frame in the interior;
a chandelier - today these are not as magnificent options as before, but no less interesting, for example, with glass golden beads, woven from many threads;
Wallpaper - in the modern version they look almost weightless and completely devoid of solemnity and pretentiousness, and floral or floral motifs are most often used for drawings;
in the kitchen - the most common option is gold handles and a small chandelier, less often used is an apron made of golden mosaic;
in the bathroom - for example, a spectacular golden wall in the wash basin, and even more spectacular a golden bath, located on the background of natural stone walls in a minimalist style;
in combination with other colors - the most fashionable is the use of gold with a gray tint, against which the gold details look very elegant (for example, a frame for a mirror or the base of a table lamp), and in combination with chocolate, gold is best used to decorate a bedroom or office, to the monochrome interior, gold is simply perfect, because it perfectly smooths the sharp contrast of white and black;
as an art object - the use of paintings written in gold, especially if the picture is large, it will immediately attract attention, the placement of a sculpture covered with gold will give the same effect;
textiles - it’s possible to create a golden interior without the use of gold, for this it’s enough just to pick up curtains, pillows, bedspreads, upholstery in furniture of golden shades, for example, such as light yellow, golden brown or ocher with a metallic sheen

Should not be forgotten

Making the interior in gold color, it should be remembered that gold is primarily a high-tech material for creating decorations, and not a manifestation of kitsch. In this connection, one should not oversaturate the interior with an abundance of shiny objects when both walls and ceilings literally sparkle with gold - such an interior only speaks of the owner’s desire to show his superiority and financial well-being, which in the designer language sounds like a lack of taste.
