Elements: Brown

Few colors exude class and understated luxury quite like brown. Think of a good cup of coffee (or bourbon), rich hardwood or Steve McQueen’s Ferrari.

Think of colors that exude class. Black is good, but it’s really stealthy and sleek more than anything. White still comes off a bit too Miami Vice. But natural, earthy brown is sure to never lose its subtle, luxurious edge. Think of a good cup of coffee (or bourbon), rich hardwood or Steve McQueen’s Ferrari. While brown will remain a popular choice in furniture and home design, feel free to branch out and incorporate the color more into your life with some of our favorite brown products.
