Today gold is back in the most beautiful homes. But it is a different gold.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>There is a word that, until recently, was enough to condemn a project: kitsch. And for a long season that verdict had a very precise colour, gold. The mirror bright tap, the swollen gilded frame, the handle that glittered like one jewel too many: <strong>gold in interior design<\/strong> had become the symbol of a taste that mistook the precious for the expensive, elegance for excess. Then that certainty began to crack. Gold is back at the heart of our interiors, and in the pages of design magazines it is now looked at with desire rather than embarrassment.<\/p>\n<p>The truth is that <strong>gold hasn&#8217;t come back: our idea of gold has changed<\/strong>. What lights up this season&#8217;s rooms has nothing left of the mirror chrome we once tied to ostentation: it is a matte, brushed, hand laid gold that ages and holds the light instead of throwing it back with arrogance. The moment it stopped shining to prove something, gold shed its weight. It was demoted from a symbol of wealth to plain material. And it is precisely that demotion that saved it.<\/p>\n<h2>Why gold is a light, not a colour<\/h2>\n<p>Anyone who designs knows it well: gold does not behave like a colour. A colour you choose, you lay down, and it stays where it is. Gold instead changes with the light, with the hour, with whoever crosses the room. In the morning it is almost white, at sunset it warms to amber, at night under a lamp it turns to fire. It is the only colour that carries time inside it. No wonder it belongs to the history of art before that of furnishing: the gold grounds of Byzantine mosaics, Klimt&#8217;s gold leaf, the altarpieces of the fourteenth century never used gold to declare wealth, but to hold the light and make sacred whatever it touched.<\/p>\n<p>When a designer reaches for gold today, this is exactly what they are after. Not to announce a budget, but to bring warmth, depth, a vibration no paint can give. A thread of gold around a mirror is not there to enrich: it is there to make the room feel lit even when the lights are off. It is the distance between an object that tells you what it cost and one that tells you how it feels to stand beside it.<\/p>\n<h2>Why gold is back in fashion right now<\/h2>\n<p>Gold returns whenever we need warmth, and this is a moment when we need it badly. We are coming out of a decade of greys, of <em>greige<\/em>, of flawless, slightly anaesthetised homes designed more to be photographed than to be lived in. Cold minimalism has worn thin, and with it the idea that elegance meant taking away. After all the time spent inside our own rooms, we have started asking furniture for something more physical again: matter, texture, a soul.<\/p>\n<p>The rest was done by the trends running alongside it. The return of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.archieinteriors.com\/en\/?p=11589\">Art D\u00e9co<\/a>, which has always made gold its geometric signature. The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.archieinteriors.com\/en\/?p=11655\">maximalism<\/a> that almost four designers out of ten now claim to practise, after years of subtraction. And the deep colours defining the season, burgundy, forest green, night blue, which need a warm metal beside them so as not to go dark. Gold is the note that holds all of this together. It is no accident that at the latest Salone del Mobile copper, bronze and brass took back the surfaces that had belonged to steel for a decade.<\/p>\n<h2>Recent interiors where gold sets the tone<\/h2>\n<p>Anyone who walked into the lobby of the Orient Express La Minerva in Rome this year understood at once where taste is heading. Hugo Toro worked twelve thousand square metres of a seventeenth century palazzo as if writing a screenplay, choosing warm yellow and satin brass as the thread running through every room. Nothing here shouts: the travertine, the custom Murano glass, the marble Minerva watching over the bar beneath a bespoke skylight. Gold is not decoration here, it is atmosphere, the amber light of the <em>Grand Tour<\/em> brought into the present.<\/p>\n<p>The same temperature runs through the homes Italian designers delivered this year. Among the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.archieinteriors.com\/en\/?p=26587\">best interior design projects in Milan<\/a>, gold is never a whim but an authorial gesture: Hannes Peer lights a corridor with backlit golden walls that seem to breathe, in an apartment in the Muzio building a wall of gold leaf becomes a headboard like an altar ground, and in a Liberty spirited home a brass chandelier warms a dining room in earthen tones. There is no ostentation, there is measure.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.archieinteriors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/milano2026-hannes-peer-la-casa-di-marmo-02.jpg\" alt=\"Corridor with backlit golden walls and stone pillars\"\/><figcaption>Hannes Peer&#8217;s corridor of backlit golden walls, from our selection of the best interior design projects in Milan 2026.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The same holds in the South. Among the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.archieinteriors.com\/en\/?p=27702\">best interior design projects in Naples<\/a>, the Umberto 2 restaurant weaves brass, wood and marble into a warmth that never raises its voice. It is a direction here to stay: the great openings on the way, from the Mandarin Oriental in Rome by Gilles &amp; Boissier to the return of the Orient Express in Venice, all speak the same language, one our editorial team has already told in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.archieinteriors.com\/en\/?p=28316\">best hotel renovation projects of 2026<\/a>. And where hospitality leads, private homes always follow.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.archieinteriors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/napoli-umberto-01-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"Dining room of the Umberto 2 restaurant in Naples with bespoke brass wood and marble\"\/><figcaption>The Umberto 2 restaurant in Naples, where brass, wood and marble intertwine without clamour, from the Naples 2026 selection.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2>The new finishes: leaf, brushed brass, rose gold<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.archieinteriors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/milano2026-moitie-appartamento-muzio-04-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"Wall of gold leaf used as a headboard in a Milan apartment with an ochre throw\"\/><figcaption>A wall of gold leaf becomes a headboard in an apartment in the Muzio building, project by Moiti\u00e9.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Gold&#8217;s rehabilitation runs entirely through its finishes. The noblest is still hand laid gold leaf, the very technique of the old gilders: applied to a metal disc or a fibreglass shade it is never perfectly even, and for that reason it is alive, changing by the hour. Then comes the great family of brasses, which at the latest Milan Design Week appeared in all its temperatures, from the most severe burnished to rose gold: Ghidini1961 summed it up in Richard Hutten&#8217;s <em>Lucky<\/em> coat stand, polished, burnished and rosy at once. Polished for a deliberate D\u00e9co gesture, brushed and satin for a soft light that holds no fingerprints, burnished when depth is needed.<\/p>\n<p>Technique made all of this possible, too. Galvanic and PVD treatments have made golden finishes resistant to water and daily use, so much so that brushed gold is now at home even in the bathroom and the kitchen, where it would once have been unthinkable. And then there are the surfaces that turn gold into pure matter: leaf mosaic, Murano glass with gilding fused into the crystal, woven fabrics threaded with metal. Gold is no longer something to show off. It is something to work.<\/p>\n<h2>Who still knows how to work gold<\/h2>\n<p>It is no surprise that this new idea of gold speaks mostly Italian, because it demands something that has never been in short supply here: the hand. You see it in the light of Catellani &amp; Smith, where gold leaf is laid onto discs and reflectors one by one, so that no two lamps are truly alike. Or in an icon that changes its skin without betraying itself, like the Atollo by Vico Magistretti for Oluce, a Compasso d&#8217;Oro in 1979, which also exists in a satin gold version: the same restraint we find today in the most coveted design table lamps.<\/p>\n<p>It is an ancient knowledge, one that in Italy never truly broke. There are those who turn gold leaf into mosaic and dress walls with it like jewels, those who fuse it into Murano crystal, those who have been weaving golden threads into fabric for five centuries. And there is brass, brushed with a new discretion, which has entered even the bathroom and the kitchen without dragging any nostalgia behind it. Names like Sicis, Rubelli, Venini, De Castelli or Gessi are not chasing the trend: if anything, the trend has come looking for them again.<\/p>\n<h2>How to use gold without slipping into kitsch<\/h2>\n<p>The line between elegant gold and kitsch gold is thin but razor sharp, and it comes down to one rule: gold must be an accent, never a theme. It works when it lights a single point and lets everything else breathe, the frame of a mirror, the stem of a lamp, the edge of a <em>boiserie<\/em>. It stops working the instant it tries to fill the room. The secret of the most successful interiors is not the accumulation of gold, but the subtraction all around it.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.archieinteriors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/milano2026-alessia-giacobino-casa-liberty-02-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"Bathroom with brushed brass fittings ochre walls and dark veined surfaces\"\/><figcaption>Brushed brass fittings in an ochre toned bathroom, Liberty home by Alessia Giacobino.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The company it keeps matters too. Gold gives its best beside materials that lift it without competing, walnut, veined marble, velvet, textured plaster, and beside the deep colours of the season, sage green, night blue, burgundy. On lighter grounds, ivory and travertine, it turns quieter and more Mediterranean. The one truly unforgivable mistake is mixing it with other shiny metals: chrome and gold tell two different stories, and only one should win a room.<\/p>\n<h2>Frequently asked questions about gold in interiors<\/h2>\n<h3>Is gold on trend in 2026?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes, it is one of the most recognisable trends of the year. It was brought back among the most desired finishes by the Art D\u00e9co revival, the growth of maximalism and the warm metals seen at the latest Salone del Mobile, but in a satin, measured version far from the loud gold of the past.<\/p>\n<h3>What is the difference between elegant gold and kitsch gold?<\/h3>\n<p>The difference lies in the finish and the quantity. Gold that slips into kitsch is glossy, mirror bright and everywhere, and serves to declare wealth. Elegant gold is matte, brushed or hand laid, and stays an accent: a few well chosen points of light, never a surface that shouts.<\/p>\n<h3>Which colours pair well with gold?<\/h3>\n<p>Gold gives its best beside the deep colours of the season, forest and sage green, night blue, burgundy and chocolate. It also works beautifully on warm neutrals such as ivory, sand and travertine, while it calls for caution next to cold greys and chrome.<\/p>\n<h3>Does gold work in bathrooms and kitchens?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes, and today it is one of the most appreciated choices precisely in these rooms. Galvanic and PVD treatments make golden finishes resistant to water and daily use, and a single brushed brass tap is enough to ennoble a bathroom in marble or microcement.<\/p>\n<h3>Polished or satin gold, which is better?<\/h3>\n<p>For a contemporary interior the safest choice is satin gold or brushed brass, which reflect light softly and hold no fingerprints. Polished gold remains perfect for a deliberate D\u00e9co gesture, on a small detail such as a frame or an important mirror.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For years it was the colour no designer dared to name: too loud, too sure of itself.
