Mixed METALLICS
Combine gold and silver for ultimate glamour
The STYLE RULES
DON’T BE AFRAID TO MIX IT UP
Sophisticated neutrals make the perfect base for showcasing dazzling shades of silver, gold and even gilver (gold + silver).
CREATE WAVES ON WALLS
Give traditional stripe wallpaper a dynamic twist with a subtle wave design in pale gold. Alternatively, paint walls brilliant white and hang elegant monochrome photographic prints.
PILE ON THE LUXURY
Choose opulent velvet upholstery in timeless silver or taupe, then add tactile cushions in slubby silk and glittering sequins.
FURTHER THE FEELING OF GRANDEUR
Complete the look with statement lighting. A crystal chandelier brings a dose of old-school glamour, while a hammered gold pendant offers a contemporary look.

The STYLE RULES
