Designing a art nouveau living room

A art nouveau living room blends the art nouveau look — lyrical + integrated, ash, opalescent glass, bronze — with layouts and details that suit a living room. Start with the palette, anchor the room around a focal point, then layer in texture and lighting.

Art Nouveau living room palette

Start with pale plaster, celadon and honey-toned wood. Let glass introduce translucent green, violet and amber, then repeat only one of those colors in textile.

Color roles

Celadon

A pale mineral green that supports timber and colored glass without becoming botanical wallpaper.

Honey ash

A luminous wood tone suited to bent profiles, marquetry and fitted joinery.

Dusty iris

A quiet violet for wool, glass or one painted accent.

Leaf olive

Adds depth around pale wood while retaining an organic rather than jewel-toned mood.

Soft amber

Activates glass and shaded lamps in small, warm concentrations.
