3 palettes, one room
Hollywood Regency color palettes
Hollywood Regency color is black and white with one saturated color and plenty of gold. Pick the color, emerald, fuchsia, turquoise or coral, and let it take the biggest piece in the room.
Every color, and where it goes
Hex codes to match against paint and fabric samples. Colors on screens and in daylight never quite agree, so hold a sample up in the room before you commit.

The loudest one: a fuchsia sofa on white, with black and gold.

How to use a palette
Every palette here is listed from the most of the room to the least. Keep roughly to that order and the colors hold together.
-
1
Most of the room: the first color
The walls, and often the ceiling. A light, quiet color that everything else sits against.
-
2
A third: the next two
The big pieces: the sofa, the rug, the wood. They set the mood of the room.
-
3
A tenth: the last two
Cushions, a lamp, frames, a vase. Small, so a bold accent stays an accent.
