8 Color Looks to Enhance Traditional Rooms

While many young homeowners have shifted away from traditional design, this classic style deserves a second look — an old-school design style can be colorful and fresh. If you've purchased an older house, a traditional look will be in keeping with your home's architecture. Or maybe you've inherited traditional furniture and you're not sure how to incorporate it into your space. One way to accomplish this is by using color in a way that will make your room look and feel classic. Here are some colors to try.


Gold. Gold or deep mustard will add instant elegance to your traditional space. These colors pick up the honey tones in wood furnishings very nicely and create a harmonious feel.


Red. Red is the ultimate traditional hue, but it can be too bold for some people. If you'd like to try just a little dose of this color, go for crimson accent fabrics.


Green. Yellow-greens and sage greens are often seen in traditional rooms. These colors lend a natural, organic feel to a room.

Modern style gets a lot of love these days, but traditional homes can feel just as fresh with paint picks like these. Article originally published on Houzz.
