Changeable colour in earth tones

What applies to all other colours also applies to colour nuances from nature: there is no one brown. You can use different shades depending on the occasion and room. Whether you want to spread a warm brown that is reminiscent of milk chocolate like Brown with Choc, a sandy brown for your bathroom or a greyish brown like Grey with Brown to give your warmly lit living room a sophisticated look - our colour selection gives you all the options.

All colour shades available from MissPompadour are offered as wall paints and lacquer paints for finishing furniture made of wood, metal and plastic, as well as stairs, tiles, wall panels and much more. This applies to the colour shades from the Just paint Collection as well as the chalk shades from the CosyColours Collection. This also gives you the opportunity to conjure up an atmosphere of comfort and warmth in your rooms with colour nuances from nature. If you are a person for whom down-to-earthness and a connection with nature are important, then earthy colours straight from nature are the right wall and paint colours for designing your home.

Brown: a diverse colour scheme

We associate brown with earth and nature; it radiates cosiness and warmth. When you start to explore the colour scheme of brown, you realise how complex this seemingly simple colour shade is.

If you want to use brown wall paint and design your home in cosy, earthy shades, you can use light brown, sand, chocolate brown or even cinnamon brown for your wall design. Warm earthy tones include ochre, orange-brown or beige tones mixed with red or ochre. There are also cool variants among the earth tones, to which blue and violet are added. These include cool sand colours and basically any brown with a predominance of grey. There are also medium brown shades (caramel or nougat-coloured) such as our Brown with Nougat, through to the deep, dark Brown with Dark Chocolate

If you are looking for a warm and cosy brown that is particularly suitable for a cosy country house style and that you can also use in the living room, our Brown with Terracotta is highly recommended for an accent wall. If you're really brave, you can find Brown with Black - which looks a little like soft black but is actually a deep, dark brown.

Brown colour on the wall

The colour shade brown has a calming and grounding effect. As a colour from nature, brown has a relaxing effect and can be used anywhere. It conveys a sense of security and structure, has a very cosy feel and fits perfectly into an authentic country house style. Thanks to its restraint, it is unobtrusive and remains in the background. As you can see, brown wall paints can be combined in many different ways.

However, how brown looks in detail depends very much on the predominant undertones. A brown-grey colour shade has a different effect than a warm earth tone. And rooms in which an accent wall is painted with dark brown chalk paints have a completely different look than when an intense brown on furniture placed against a wall in creamy white creates an eye-catching effect. While warm brown tones convey a feeling of security and reliability, cool brown tones with large proportions of grey or blue can convey an effect of cool elegance.

Brown colour as a varnish on tiles, stairs & co.

Because earthy colour shades often offer many possible combinations, brown is also a popular colour for rooms such as hallways and stairwells. Combining different shades of brown is also a good idea here. For example, floor tiles in the entrance area can be wonderfully designed by stencilling in different earthy colours such as beige and brown tones. A wooden staircase can also be designed with varnishes in brown. Of course, these colour shades, which bring so much comfort, warmth and cosiness to your home, also work well on furniture, doors, shutters and window frames

Design rooms in earthy tones

You can use earthy tones in rooms where you want to create a cosy atmosphere - such as the living room or bedroom. Retreat rooms are particularly suitable for this. If you want to create a cosy feeling in a room, use one of the many earth tones. You can use our wall paints for wallpaper and woodchip wallpaper and apply our varnishes to wooden furniture such as cupboards and chests of drawers.

As brown is calming and therefore curbs your creativity, it should not be used in the office or hobby room. But why not decorate a wall in the living room or bedroom with earthy tones - perhaps use the dark, soft brown of Brown with Dark Chocolate on an accent wall behind the couch. You can design the other walls in a warm, light colour shade to round off the effect. In this way, you can create an area for relaxation and rest.

Brown varnishes also fit perfectly in the bathroom. By combining fresh aqua tones with earth tones on the tiles, you can conjure up your own personal oasis of well-being. Use one of our brown colours to create an atmosphere of relaxation and cosiness in your entrance area

Tips on the trend colours: chocolate brown, sand & co.

Precisely because earth tones are so universally applicable, it can be difficult to choose a specific colour. But we can reassure you - the colour brown really can be used universally!

Living styles and trends in earthy colour shadesn

Just like grey, earthy tones can be used in a wide variety of living styles and are flexible living colours. Mixing grey with brown is also very popular: with a colour shade like Warm Grey from the CosyColours Collection, you can combine the best of both colour worlds.

Whether you are furnished with cool, neutral colours in a boho style, prefer the Scandi style or are going for exotic furnishings in an oriental style - there are no limits to brown and earth tones thanks to their broad colour scheme. Brown even suits eclectic living styles: combine it with an intense colour shade such as Orange with Rust or Brown with Terracotta. Paint with the wall paint brown to have a universal colour from nature for your interior design style.

Wonderful combinations with the colour brown

Basically, all colours go well with earth tones. Other natural colours in particular can be perfectly combined with it. Combine a wall painted in Brown with Nougat with Green with Sage to create a cosy, natural atmosphere.

Warm earthy tones such as Brown with Dark Chocolate can be complemented by colours with a touch of red. Freshen up a chest of drawers with the brown shade and paint the wall behind it in Rose with Brown to create an effect of casual elegance.

Fresh turquoise and aqua tones also have a special radiance when combined with earth tones as a tile paint. If the lower tile area in the bathroom is painted with the cosy Brown with Nougat, use Green with Jade on the upper tiles for the perfect holiday feeling. Round off your oasis with a clear white such as White with Character on the ceiling.

Use a warm earth tone, such as Brown with Terracotta, on one wall and combine it with a bright yellow to create a room atmosphere reminiscent of a sunny day. Alternatively, paint with a warm, light green to emphasise the brown.

A perfect combination with earth tones is also clear white tones and, of course, many light beige tones. Other spice and taupe tones are also ideal. If you stick to natural colour shades in your combinations, you're definitely on the right track.

You can also stick to natural colours when decorating. Wood and natural fabrics such as linen and cashmere, or even cotton, combine to create a successful atmosphere. Metallic colours such as brass and gold create an exciting and sophisticated effect with the various earthy tones.

You can also use green plants to create interesting accents. You can lay a sage green carpet on your floor to create a well-rounded overall impression. Combine it with picture frames in light-coloured wood or warm gold to create the ideal interior design.
