Burgundy Finds Its Footing in the Season's Interiors

· 1 min read
The American Set on film — also on Instagram.

Designers working on houses from Palm Beach to the Hamptons are reaching for burgundy again, using it as a base note rather than an accent. The shade's appeal is its depth: rooms take on the layered, lived-in warmth that pairing it well requires, more than picking the color, is where the effort actually goes. For owners weighing an interior refresh this fall, it is a reminder that a bold shade succeeds or fails on what sits next to it.
