In this article, we present the five best MIDAS metals in warm colours that are perfect for your projects: MIDAS Metall® Gold, Old Gold, Bronze, Golden Bronze and Copper.
Warm colour concepts play a decisive role in interior design, as they not only determine the aesthetic quality of a room, but also significantly influence its atmosphere. This is why colours such as red, orange, yellow and their shades through to warm browns are perceived as pleasant and create a feeling of security and intimacy. These shades tend to make rooms appear closer, creating a cosy and inviting environment.
In Johannes Itten’s colour theory, warm colours are described as expansive and full of energy. Itten emphasises that warm colours are able to evoke a strong emotional response and are often associated with positive feelings such as joy and warmth. Warm colour concepts are therefore particularly beneficial in living spaces and hotels, where the focus is on relaxation and well-being.
In addition, warm colours influence the perception of space and depth. Kandinsky emphasised the dynamic effect of warm colours early on in his work ‘On the Spiritual in Art’. He describes how these colours, when used correctly, can not only contribute to spatial constriction, but also to accentuating and highlighting certain spatial elements. In combination with structural elements such as textures or materials, warm colours can emphasise the architecture of a room while adding depth and character. MIDAS Metall® is a suitable material for creating these accents. For a successful application of warm colour concepts, it is therefore important to consider the room, its function and the desired emotional reactions.
MIDAS Metall® Gold, antique gold, bronze, gold bronze and copper: these metals not only offer outstanding aesthetics, but can also be combined with other materials in a variety of ways to create a warm, harmonious and stylish interior.
Gold is the epitome of luxury and elegance. In colour theory, gold is often described as a warm, strong colour that symbolises prosperity and abundance. It is one of the oldest and most valuable metal alloys and has been used in art and architecture for centuries. The liquid metal finish of MIDAS Metall® gives surfaces a warm, rich lustre that sets accents in any room. Gold is ideal for accent walls, decorative elements or pieces of furniture that are to play a central role in the room. Especially in combination with dark woods such as walnut or wenge, gold unfolds its full splendour and creates a luxurious, inviting ambience. → Directly to the metal
Gold antique is characterised by its nostalgic, deep golden, slightly rustic, intense colouring. In Bauhaus colour theory, Gold antique is described as a colour tone that radiates dignity and durability. MIDAS Metall® Gold antique is therefore ideal for use in classic interiors that are intended to radiate a certain calm and grandeur. It combines well with natural materials such as marble and dark woods to create a timeless elegance. → Directly to the metal
MIDAS Metall® Bronze is one of the most versatile metals in interior design. Bronze has a warm, earthy tone that conveys calm and permanence. The real metal coating of MIDAS Metall® gives surfaces a deep, warm tonality that blends in perfectly with both modern and traditional interior concepts. Bronze can be used over large areas, e.g. for wall panelling or as a surface for furniture. Especially in combination with natural stone or leather, it creates a harmonious and stylish ambience. → Dirket zum Metall
Gold bronze is an alloy that combines the best properties of gold and bronze. It exudes the luxury of gold, but brings with it the warmth and earthiness of bronze. This mixture makes gold bronze a particularly interesting choice for designers who want to combine the best of both worlds. MIDAS Metall® Gold Bronze is ideal for accentuations that are not too obtrusive but still need to be present. In combination with materials such as velvet or silk, luxurious yet cosy living concepts can be realised. → Direkt zum Metall
MIDAS Metall® Copper is a pure metal that is characterised by its warm, reddish colour. In colour theory, it is described as a dynamic and energetic tone. Copper conveys warmth, vibrancy and a touch of nostalgia. The liquid metal finish is perfect for those who want to make a strong statement in their space. Copper is particularly suitable for kitchens, bathrooms or accents in living rooms. In combination with wood types such as oak or ash, it creates a harmonious yet modern overall look. → Direkt zum Metall
To summarise, the five MIDAS metals presented here are the ideal alloys for warm interior concepts. Their natural, warm tones create a cosy and inviting atmosphere that goes perfectly with materials such as wood, natural stone or textiles. Especially in combination with dark woods, but also with modern materials such as concrete or glass, unique living environments can be created that are both contemporary and timeless.
