There is no warmer, more comforting color you can find than a nice brown. It’s a very dependable color to use in design because as a neutral, it can be paired with just about any other accent color. Other positives to brown are that it’s gender neutral and a great choice for families due to its durability and comforting appeal. It’s easy to make it casual or elegant, or a mix of both. Its versatility is one of the many beautiful things about decorating with brown. These 10 rooms demonstrate how stylish brown can be in a few different areas of the home.
