Using gold in your home
Gold works best where it can relate to wood, art, and metal finishes. Use it in entries, dining rooms, powder rooms, cabinetry, or a ceiling detail with cream trim, navy, olive, walnut, or black. South light makes gold glow strongly. North light can make brassier golds look more muted. Repeat the color. A single gold wall with no related materials can feel stranded.
