With a touch of brilliance

When it comes to the final touch of your décor, a pinch of gold, silver or bronze can be a brilliant idea. Adding glitter is the easiest way to make things shiny, sparkling and unique for a home.

Metallics are a very popular trend right now. From furniture to wall coverings and accessories – one can create high contrasting visual dimension and texture to a space or add a soft touch to a room with the help of these tints. Chanda Narang, CEO Frazer and Haws, says, “Bold metallic colours reflect light, which many a time open up space and turns a dull space into a more interesting and unexpected corner. One can always play with these shiny shades and to make it look more vibrant and exotic. Metallics work well with many colours, tints, tones, and shades. Gold and silver accents are a hot trend right now, and a right balance of the two shades can make your home look glamorous. Use gold or silver lamps in your bedroom to create a warm, elegant feel. Whereas for the living area one can use table accessories, crystal glasses, tea sets tableware etc to add a sparkling effect.”

Suruchi Khanna vouches for metallic trends this season and points out that shade of copper, silver, rose gold and everything in between are the chicest way to accentuate a modern and contemporary space. She says, “There are different ways of using metallic accents. You can add table runners to the dining tables with theme- based table mats for the same. Metal highlighters, sequence, and embellishments are quite trending too. One can also use metallic sequence or patches with bright colours, Swarovski work and beautiful digital printed home furnishing to light up the room.
