What color palette is most often associated with Parisian Apartment decor?
Jewel tones. The opulence of jewel tones works best with Parisian Apartment Style. Examples of appropriate colors might include crimson red or garnet tones, emerald green, and cobalt blue - colors that have richness, depth, and remind you of something palatial or "royal" in nature. Accents in burnished gold, black, and white work best and give a graphic liveliness to the space. Black is "grounding" in nature, toning down the bold richness of the jewel tones. White softens and lightens the color palette. Gold adds to the rich and royal feel of the space.
