1. GOLD AND GREEN
Shades of green have dominated interior design trends in recent years, but this versatile hue can feel incredibly sumptuous and luxurious when paired with the right colors – and gold is one such hue.
2. A MONOCHROME SCHEME WITH MIXED FINISHES
While this might not be a color combination as such, using different paint finishes together can create an elevated scheme. This gives you the option to decorate a room in one dramatic color while still having some element of contrast.
3. JEWEL TONES
Nothing says luxury like jewel tones – combining two or three of these hues will create a warm, luxurious scheme. 'Jewel tones always feel very luxurious to me – I love using colors like emerald, amethyst, burgundy, and sapphire to create a really opulent look,' says Kathy Kuo, CEO of Kathy Kuo Home.
4. CHOCOLATE BROWN AND WARM NEUTRALS
Typical bathroom color ideas usually include lots of white and colors like blue or green. But these spaces can really benefit from warmer hues, especially if you're looking to create a luxury bathroom scheme.
5. NAVY BLUE AND BRASS ACCENTS
In a kitchen color scheme, introducing a sense of luxury can come from the right color and hardware pairing. 'Creating a luxurious color scheme often involves incorporating rich, deep hues and metallic accents, such as navy blue and brass,' says Burcu Garnier, co-founder at Color Atelier.
6. MIX DIFFERENT NEUTRAL HUES
Although luxurious interiors are often associated with more saturated hues, decorating with neutrals can be just as effective. Instead of creating a scheme that feels dramatic and sumptuous, it creates a more calming, understated sense of luxury.
7. BLACK AND BROWN
Once a controversial color pairing, black and brown used together can create a truly luxurious space. ‘Warm, brown shades of honey, caramel, and chocolate will bring warmth and comfort into our homes, creating cozy, luxurious interiors that appeal to all the senses,' says Ruth.
