Colors that Go With Gold

Even if you're unsure what colors go with gold, it's hard to go wrong because gold goes with almost anything. You can pair gold with white, beige, black, green, navy blue, pink, gray, purple, teal, cream, burgundy… and almost any other color imaginable. However, many designers avoid paring this shade with tones of silver, yellow, and brown.

Ways to Use Gold in Your Home

Gold never goes out of style. But when it comes to decorating with this color, less is often more. But even a few gold accents can add a lot of shine and sparkle to your space. Since you can pair it with other colors, you can use gold to create a cohesive interior design.

Some common styles that feature gold include ultra-modern luxurious interiors, traditional spaces, and interesting period design like Hollywood Regency. Consider a statement piece of furniture in gold, like gold chairs at the dining room table, a gold side table in a hallway, or a gold coffee table to center a neutral space and reflect light around the room. You can also create a gold accent wall with darker colors as a base using gold paint or wallpaper.

Pillows and couches using a combination of neutral and gold textiles or furniture with golden hardware can pull the color into your home, while curtains, window shades, and bedspreads can emphasize the luxurious feel with gold embroidery or patterning. If you have vintage items, like thrifted mirrors or refinished light fixtures, brighten them up and make look new with gold paint or leafwork.

Accessorizing with gold is one common way to add extra color and sine to your space when used on hardware, picture frames, vases, paintings, and more.

Window Treatments that Complement Gold

Just like you can add gold hardware or gilded textiles to your couches or bedspreads, you can select window treatments with gold threads or in gold fabric.

Other ways to incorporate the look of gold are warm, natural shades of wood blinds or shutters that complement the gold throughout your space. Pair them with drapery that incorporates a gold pattern or stripes for added contrast.

At Blind Corners, we offer a selection of refined fabric shades from the Alustra Collection™. These shades are made from natural woven materials like linen, cotton, and tweed. Choose a neutral shade to allow your gold accents and hardware to pop.

  • Roman shades add a luxury and elegance to a room’s visual appeal, but when you select the Alustra® Woven Textures® Roman Shades, you can select a fabric with metallic threads woven through them that can add a glint of gold to your home. These fabrics gently diffuse sunlight to create a soft glow.
  • You can also select Alustra® Woven Textures® Roller Shades if you prefer a simple look for your windows, but you still want the shimmering fabric element.
