Neutral colour palettes do not need to be boring. While white and magnolia used to be staple tones for a ‘plain’ home interior there are now far more opulent and rich natural colour selections that will create a serene, natural elegance to your home. A glamorous and luxurious CHAMPAGNE colour scheme will create a refined and neutral backdrop in both classic and contemporary home interiors and can be partnered with a wide variety of furnishings and accessories for a calm and chic appearance.
Colour Palette
Neutral champagne tones look fabulous with both natural and bold colour tones. For a chic and feminine interior finish then partner champagne with rich gold, caramel, taupe and chocolate for a luxurious look that is classically elegant. For a more flamboyant finish then select deep black and pewter tones and combine with metallic champagne for a boutique hotel finish that will create a sense of illumination in smaller home interiors. Pastel tones also work well alongside natural champagne hues with colours such as peach, baby pink and powder blue creating a subtle hint of colour that works well on a statement feature wall.
Cushions
People often avoid neutral coloured cushions in favour of more bold and colourful designs however a scattering or textural layer of champagne coloured cushions will create a rich and luxurious finish against a light or dark coloured sofa or bedding set. Champagne coloured linen cushions will give a hint of French chateau opulence in your home and can be complimented by a range of beige and black printed cushions featuring wine and champagne label designs. For a more rich and glamorous finish then select champagne coloured satin cushions that are heavily embroidered or embellished with beads, sequins, tassels and bows for a neutral yet eye-catching finish.
Upholstery
Neutral upholstery is a great way of adding a fresh colour or pattern to you r home without overpowering an existing colour scheme or theme. A classic champagne linen fabric will look great partnered with a light golden oak frame work on a seat, stool or bed frame and creates an elegant farmhouse charm in classic home interiors. Satin and velvet fabrics featuring champagne and beige floral patterns with metallic accents will create a luxurious feminine feel within your home. These can be combined with an opulent gold leaf frame work on an occasional chair or chaise lounge for a rich and illuminating focal point in any living room or bedroom setting.
Accessories
The glistening metallic tones of champagne coloured accessories will add a luxurious finishing touch to both neutral and bold interior backdrops. Shimmering champagne and gold mirrored vases, photo frames and ornaments will look great along an oak or rich black painted console table while subtle cream and beige candlesticks, crockery and collectables will create a soft and subtle focal point against a cream painted dresser for a cosy, chateau look. For a striking and glamorous focal point on a side table or bedside display a gold metallic lamp base with sequin or mirrored accents and finish with a soft champagne coloured shade for a blend of neutral and opulent tones.
Furniture
Due to their elegant neutral tones, champagne interiors can be finished with a wide variety of furniture items to create both refined and luxurious looks. For a classic French chateau style, select an array of light oak furniture items that will blend seamlessly with the natural champagne colour tones. Alternatively select rich cream painted furniture items that will create a cosier farmhouse ambiance that is perfect for traditional or shabby chic homes. If you are looking for a rich and glamorous finish then select bold statement furniture items such as a dining table, bed frame or dresser in glistening gold or bold black that will create a feminine boutique look in any room of the home.
