Basic Guidelines

The aim of the glamour look is to create a luxurious appearance. Elaborate ceiling paneling or stucco ceilings are often used to achieve this.

White, bare walls are a no-go. Wallpaper, often with 3D elements, as well as eye-catching decorations and lighting design round off the concept.

Materials

Natural wood floors are very popular as a base. Elegant walnut is a favorite, but knot-free oak planks in special laying formats also complement the glamorous style perfectly.

Carpets, upholstered furniture, and chairs are primarily chosen in velvet, velour, or satin materials. In contrast, kitchens and other areas are chosen with smooth, shiny surfaces. Mirrors are often the icing on the cake.

Typical Color Scheme

Whether on walls, ceilings, or furniture, dark, elegant colors such as royal blue, emerald green, or ruby red are used here. Metallic elements in gold, silver, copper, or brass add that certain (shiny) extra touch.

Wallpaper, upholstery, and decorations featuring baroque patterns are particularly popular.

Furniture & Furnishings

When it comes to furnishings, the glamour style emphasizes the use of opulent, distinctive pieces of furniture. Chests of drawers and tables may have curved legs, while large, glittering chandeliers adorn dining tables.
