There’s a depth and intensity to burgundy that our much-loved neutrals just can't match. Like brown – another shade on the up – this rich, red-wine hue is dark, moody, intriguing – and the fact that designers are using it more and more is a sign, perhaps, of turning inward and embracing our homes as a respite from a restless world.

We've seen it used in color-drenched schemes, paired alongside other red-wine adjacent shades like aubergine and bright red. It also stands up to textures like wool, bouclé and shearling, materials that will only help to amplify the feeling of luxury this color creates – and isn’t that what we all want from our interiors right now?
