This room is set in soft yellows and golds from the walls to the floor and to the upholstery. Very soothing, rich and warm colors. The window treatments are a welcome splash of color giving the room that urban, sophisticated look. Color is something to revel in, not to be afraid of whatever your choice of palette.
In this case nostalgic colors are used; the historic reds, the elegant yellows and the sage greens. Nostalgic colors are comforting and sentimental, they seem familiar and homey. They evoke a warm and cozy ambience.
The drapery panels, pinch pleated and hung on rings are made from a rich textured fabric. The swag is attached to the outside rings and is a complimenting floral with a generous bullion fringe.
