Silver Lining

To celebrate 25 years of Ireland’s Homes Interiors & Living we bring you everything silver for the interior of your home. This elegant introduction to any room brings opulence and shimmer and can be coupled with almost any colour.

In the living room Cooler metallic, such as silver can instantly refresh and beautify any room in the house with light-filled shine and shimmer. A living room can be transformed into something very special with silvered wallpaper and gleaming upholstery. If high shine silver is just a little too flash for your tastes, there’s always the more muted, brushed finish to consider. Mixed with the right amount of charcoals and creams, a silver lined living room will give off a cool warmness that makes it easy to relax in the evenings and easy to feel at home in. Or you could just add some metallic accents to brighten up your living room and give it a bit of an edge. Silver isn’t as harsh as gold but still looks incredibly elegant and refined in big and small spaces. It also works well with muted neutrals giving off a relaxing vibe and cozy atmosphere.

What’s great about silver is that it’s foundation is held within the grey family meaning no matter what colour you use to accent the room, it’ll be the star of the show. Also, pairing silver with chocolatey browns creates a rich, warm style. Although not a natural coupling, silver will take the golden undertone from brown creating a natural light in the room.
