The Colours:
- Soft Beige – A calming, versatile base colour for walls and curtains.
- Warm Sandstone – A subtle, golden beige that adds depth and richness.
- Antique Gold – Elegant metallic accents that bring a touch of opulence.
- Ivory White – A clean, crisp white used in linens and trims for contrast.
- Dark Wood – Deep brown wood tones in furniture to ground the design.
- Blush Taupe – A muted, warm taupe found in rugs and accessories for texture.
How to Style It:
- Walls: Paint the walls in Soft Beige for a light, airy base. Try Dulux Natural Calico or Farrow & Ball Joa’s White for a similar effect.
- Furniture: Choose furniture in Dark Wood tones, such as the bed frame and bedside tables, to create contrast and ground the room. Opt for intricate designs or carved details for a more luxurious feel.
- Textiles: Use Ivory White bedding as the foundation, layered with pillows and throws in Warm Sandstone and Blush Taupe. Introduce ornate patterns or embroidery in cushions to enhance the luxurious aesthetic.
- Canopy: Add an elegant canopy in a light Soft Beige fabric over the bed for a regal touch. It creates a focal point and adds a sense of intimacy to the space.
- Rugs: Place a large, patterned rug in Blush Taupe and Antique Gold tones to tie the colour palette together. A Persian-style rug works beautifully for this look.
- Decor: Use Antique Gold accents in mirrors, wall decor, and lighting fixtures to add opulence. Include sculptural details or intricate metallic wall art to draw the eye.
- Lighting: Choose warm, ambient lighting, such as table lamps with fabric shades and a statement chandelier with gold accents. Lantern-style pendant lights also add a Moorish-inspired touch.
- Curtains: Long, flowing curtains in Soft Beige frame the windows and add an elegant softness to the room.
The Soft Beige walls provide a serene foundation, while the Dark Wood and Antique Gold accents add a sense of depth and richness. The layered textiles in Warm Sandstone and Blush Taupe create warmth and texture, making the room feel cosy yet elegant. This sophisticated palette draws inspiration from nature while exuding luxury, making it perfect for creating a timeless retreat.
