Gold is the colour of all things luxury. It amplifies elegance and is traditionally symbolic of high quality. If you want to add a sophisticated and modern touch to your home interiors in an effortless way, gold is the way to go. Also, remember that gold is a colour that is most usually related to transparency and royalty.
In this blog, we will look at some off-beat ideas for including the wondrous and warm golden colour combination, thereby revealing your home’s radiance.
When you think of gold-themed homes, images of larger-than-life chandeliers and bulky door handles conjure up. But gold is a versatile colour that can be used in a variety of ways. For example, you can place a gorgeous gold lamp and mirror in the living room to add a ‘glittering’ touch to your living space:

From lighting fixtures and rugs to highly accented mirrors and other decor items, there are endless options to consider. So, take inspiration from these themes outlined above. These ideas are GOLD (quite literally).
