TUSCAN HOMES - Tuscan Colors

Create visual depth with heavily textured walls and rich Mediterranean color. Yellow and orange are signature colors in Tuscan interior design. Yellow is subdued and found in shades of gold as seen in golden olive oil and creamy stucco walls in ancient buildings. Shades of gold are Mediterranean neutrals found on floors and walls as well as in cabinetry and furniture. The orange in Mediterranean design is burnt terra cotta orange or even darker. Rusty burnt orange is used on walls and floors. Darkest shades are found in dark cabinetry and furniture. For accent colors, warm tomato red, cobalt blue, olive green and golden sunflower yellow are often found in ceramic art throughout southern Europe.

Decorating with Iron Wall Decor

Iron wall decor offers a myriad of choices and solutions for Tuscan style decorating. Iron wall decor can be introduced into a Tuscan decorating theme by using iron wall grilles as a grand focal point or to create the illusion of windows in small rooms.

When decorating expansive walls in rooms with high ceilings, iron wall decor is an excellent choice to fill spaces above wall tapestry, mirrors and framed art. Doors and windows are also complimented by scrolled iron toppers.

Iron framed mirrors are an excellent choice in the Tuscan bathroom and iron candle holders and vertical wall grilles fill narrow wall space.

In your foyer or dining room, include the feel of a Tuscan garden by using an iron wall grille as the backdrop for a floral arrangement or as a custom built divider as shown in the picture to the left.

Iron wall decor enhances Tuscan interior design.
