Some features have styles derived from baroque. Rococo is dominated by rounded lines and intricate floral ornaments. The golden bedroom in the Empire style is distinguished by white color in combination with gold and the classic purity of the lines.
- The artsy art deco, a bright and shocking mix of styles, allows everything. The center of the composition can be a sofa upholstered in "golden" leather, decorative ornaments made of yellow metal. To create a rich contrast, you can enter saturated colors - purple, red, black.
- The unique Egyptian style, monumental and laconic, involves the use of sandy matte gold. You can find paintings and wallpapers with Egyptian motifs, shimmering golden fabrics.
- The bedroom, conceived in the style of "Aztec gold", gives scope for a rich imagination. Ritual masks, mysterious ethnic ornaments.
