See How We Brought Bakelite Gold to Life

1. Baked-In Beauty
Bakelite Gold brings a grounded, cheerful energy to a kitchen that leans into mid-century influences. Set against a soft, textured backdrop like warm white brick or tile, this golden hue becomes a focal point that feels both lively and earthy.
Brass fixtures and retro-inspired details enhance the warm undertones and highlight the playful, nostalgic spirit of the color.
Get the Look: Color-blocked cabinetry, brass accents, vintage inspired appliances

2. Golden Slumbers
In a bedroom, Bakelite Gold works beautifully as an accent that adds intention without overwhelming the space. Pairing this hue with muted blush neutrals, like a gentle Rose Tan, creates an atmosphere reminiscent of early morning light. Light, creamy neutrals such as Alabaster to help ground the palette and give the room an effortless sense of calm and cohesion.
