Until recently, brown has been a relatively unsung hue in the world of decor. Only in the last few years have people truly started to appreciate the power of this rich, earthy shade as 1970s decor enjoys a modern-day resurgence. But in order to pull it off properly, you'll need to know what colors go with brown — and if you want to avoid the kitsch combos of the 70s, you'll need to think carefully.
Paired with complementary shades, brown can be a real showstopper. This sumptuous tone knows no limits when it comes to bringing depth to a decor scheme and decorating with brown is easier than first thoughts would have it. This is largely due to its inherent links to the natural world —think about all the varieties of lustrous woods available — that make it a versatile and liveable color choice no matter where you use it.
