Gold in the interior

And one of those colors is gold. Gold in a modern interior is generally a rather controversial issue. Some designers argue that gold is the last century or even a sign of bad taste. But this is a very narrow view of decorating a room with gold. After all, the main thing in this matter is moderation and talented use. The main mistake in using gold is that out of habit they try to use it in such interior styles as baroque, classicism, empire. But this is an outdated campaign and often it is precisely such interiors that look “expensive-rich” in the worst possible sense. On the contrary, the use of gold in modern interiors is a much more relevant and interesting trend. Moreover, it applies not only to residential buildings, but also to office premises, restaurants, cafes, etc. There are some tips that will help you use the golden color and texture in the interior without too much pathos and vulgarity.

Damp out the shine

Gloss in this case is not relevant. Opt for a matte finish. Then the lamp in the bedroom will look interesting, but not flashy. Ideally, it should look like a thin layer of metal is showing through. And do not forget that even gold comes in different colors, so you should not stop at yellow gold only. Another interesting option is gold plating applied to the surface of frames, skirting boards, etc.

A minimum of pathos

A light silhouette, smooth, thin lines, neatness, lightness are the preferred characteristics for a golden object in the interior. It can be anything - a tea table in the living room, lamps, decor. The main thing is that it should not be something massive, rough.

Simplification

Gold itself is a very catchy and strong accent for the interior. So there should be very little of it in the room. Moreover, you should not place it in rooms with already existing bright objects or patterns. This will create the impression of a gypsy camp on the road. Also, gold will go well with natural materials such as cotton, glass, wood, leather. The best option is the golden elements in the interior, which is made quite restrained and simple. For example, a kitchen in the style of minimalism, loft, contemporary.

Soft background

You should not combine gold with red, green, yellow and other bright, powerful colors. The best background for gold is pastel colors, gray, black, white. And it is better to combine gold with matte finishes. This will neutralize the native shine of gold and give it calmness and nobility.

Balance the catchy texture

If the designer correctly and moderately uses gold in the interior, then the room itself will look softer, more stylish, and elegant. The best advice on how to balance his fairly powerful stats is to put him on the back burner. Those. it should be an additional color accent that simply adds zest to the interior, and is not its main feature. For example, in the bathroom, paint only the faucets, the legs of the bathtub, and the frame of the mirror in gold.
