There are several factors involved in balance, when decorating with gothic furniture, but the one we will discuss today is making sure you have a balance of "hot" and "cold". Many times when dealing with industrial furniture, you are going to have an imbalance of cold. It is true that most gothic home decor is made of stone, and much industrial home decor is made of iron, and these are very cold materials to work with. To balance this out, you will need to pepper your dwelling with very warm colors, such as reds. If you want a bright and fun contrast,

However, if you are going to stick to a monochromatic theme, brown is always a good color to add in some much needed warmth to your Gothic Industrial Style.
However, frankly, there are too many other opportunities to employ brown; wood furniture, leather, quite often the carpet, baseboards and chair rails, and it's therefore a color that will usually take care of itself. Brown will happen on it's own, especially when you begin utilizing 'natural' items that provide an inherent opposition to 'man made' materials- which is a separate 'balance'.

As a result of this one single piece. due to the overabundant grays and blues in typical gothic industrial style, the brown of a bedspread causes the subconscious mind to view the brown as 'earth', and you can balance out your style without losing the organic feel. One also needs to remember, that brown is created by mixing blue and red, which is a perfect hot and cold color balance in and of itself. Make sure that it's a nice, soft, fluffy, and cottony comforter as well, so you have a nice balance between soft and hard.
