Chocolate brown, burgundy, terracotta and warm greens work well in rooms built around wood, linen and other earthy colors. Deep blue can add contrast, while butter yellow and pale pink offer a lighter starting point. If you like these palettes, art gives you a way to try them without repainting the room.
Start with the colors you already have
Look at the largest surfaces: your walls, sofa, floor and curtains. Pick a color from one of them to echo in the artwork, or choose a contrasting shade you would like to see more of. A print does not have to match the room exactly.
Pairing art with warm and earthy rooms
Chocolate brown and espresso: cream, ocher and warm abstract shapes can sit comfortably alongside dark wood and upholstery.
Clay, terracotta and burgundy: try prints with related earth tones, or add a quieter cream or neutral area to give the colors some space.
Deep blue: atmospheric blue pieces can echo the room's color, while warmer details keep the palette varied.
Butter yellow and pale pink: soft color fields are an option if you want to keep the room light.
Choose a piece you will keep looking at
A color trend can give you ideas, but it doesn’t have to decide what you buy. Look at the artwork on its own as well as beside your furniture. Choose something you would still enjoy if the room changed.
