The goal is a perfect balance between glamour and coziness, resulting in an interior that is both impressive and inviting.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1. How do I prevent a Hotel Chic interior from becoming kitsch?
The key is balance. Choose one or two basic colors and limit yourself to one metallic color (e.g., only gold or only brass). Focus on quality materials and avoid overloading with accessories. Less is more, even in a luxurious style.

2. Can Hotel Chique also be done in light colours?
Absolutely! A lighter version uses colors like champagne, greige, or soft powder pink as a base. The luxurious atmosphere is then created with materials like bouclé, marble, and shimmering gold accents.

3. Which paint colors match best with Hotel Chic moldings?
Deep jewel tones like navy or emerald green are beautiful. For a more subtle effect, paint the frames the same color as the wall (tone-on-tone) or in a high-gloss finish for a chic contrast.

4. Are flexible moldings suitable for damp areas?
Yes, Velida Flex moldings are moisture-resistant. However, do use mold-resistant sealant and moisture-resistant paint for the finish, for example, in a luxury bathroom.

5. How do I maintain walls with Hotel Chic moldings?
Dust with a soft cloth or feather duster. Carefully remove stains with a slightly damp microfiber cloth to avoid damaging the often matte paint.

6. Does Hotel Chique fit in smaller apartments?
Absolutely. Use large mirrors to visually enlarge the space, choose furniture with legs for a more airy feel, and use wall panels on a single accent wall to avoid overwhelming the room.

With the Hotel Chic style, you can transform your home into a personal and luxurious retreat. Elegant moldings are the perfect tool for achieving that refined, custom finish essential to this look. Explore our collection or contact us for personalized advice.
