The Color Trends of 2027: Earth Tones, Moss Green, and a Touch of Burgundy
The interior design of 2027 feels different. Warmer. More earthy. While recent years have been dominated by cool grays and crisp white, the color palette is slowly but surely shifting toward the tones found outdoors: the brown earth after rain, the soft green of moss on a rock, the deep color of a glass of red wine. Earth tones, moss green, and burgundy are the color trends defining interiors in 2027. And a mirror plays a bigger role in this than you might expect. The color of a mirror frame helps determine how a space feels, and the right choice enhances your interior’s color palette without you having to paint a single wall.
Why Color Trends and Mirrors Are More Closely Linked Than You Think
A mirror is never neutral. Even a frameless mirror has color, because the glass itself reflects its surroundings. But a framed mirror does more: the frame acts as a sort of border that frames the rest of the room. If you choose a greige frame, the mirror instantly adds an earthy tone to your interior. If you opt for natural oak, you’ll bring a woodsy, organic character into your home that aligns perfectly with the trends of 2027.
At Nordic Style , the mirrors are designed with serene simplicity in mind. The collections feature timeless forms, yet the available materials and colors align surprisingly well with current trends in interior design. This is no coincidence. The Scandinavian design philosophy that Nordic Style builds upon has always embraced earth tones and natural materials. As a result, the collection has served for years as a solid foundation for the color trends that are only now becoming mainstream.
Trend 1
Earth tones in interior design: greige as an anchor
Greige is the color that best represents earth tones in a mirror frame. It’s a unique blend of gray and beige, and it’s precisely that subtle warmth that makes it so striking. In an interior featuring terracotta hues, beige textiles, or natural wood floors, a greige mirror frame creates a sense of calm and cohesion. The color doesn’t stand out, but rather ties together everything that’s already in the room.
If you really want to let earth tones shine, a wooden mirror might be an even better choice. The Hanna Wood, available in natural pine or walnut, has the warmth and texture that complement earth tones. The Hanna’s organic shape also aligns with the soft, irregular character that defines this color palette. The Finn Oak, with its sleek rectangular shape and solid oak frame, offers a sturdy, calm presence that works well in a living room with earthy tones.
Please note: Wooden mirrors are not suitable for damp areas such as the bathroom. For the bathroom, it's best to choose an aluminum mirror in greige or a frameless mirror.
Trend 2
Moss green: the color that brings nature indoors
Moss green is the most striking color of 2027. It calls for an interior that dares to embrace it, but when you do, the effect is extraordinary. Moss green walls, cushions, or wall panels call for materials that enhance nature rather than clash with it. Shiny chrome or cold steel don’t go with it. What does work: wood, matte-finished frames, and untreated materials.
The “ Maj ” Oak arched mirror is a natural fit here. The arched shape echoes the organic lines found in nature, and the natural oak frame has the warm, matte finish that complements moss green. Hang a 190×60 cm “ Maj ” Oak mirror in a hallway with a moss-green wall, and you’ll immediately see why this is such a great combination. The mirror anchors the color without overpowering it.
For a slightly more subtle look, the Lara Oak works well. Its oval shape features gentle curves at the top and bottom, which complements the organic feel of moss green. Placed above a sideboard in a bedroom or living room, this combination creates a calm, harmonious look.
Trend 3
Bordeaux: The Surprising Third Color
Bordeaux is different from earth tones and moss green. It’s warm, but also dark. Deep. It’s a color that makes a statement and needs the right counterpart to keep it from feeling too heavy. Light, natural tones work well, but matte black can also pair surprisingly well with bordeaux. Not as a contrast, but as a point of balance.
A black mirror in a room with burgundy accents might seem like a bold choice, but it works well in practice. The black frame of the Nea or the Maj adds structure to an interior that might otherwise get lost in its own warmth. A black mirror isn’t cold, especially if it’s made of brushed aluminum. It’s sleek and striking, and that’s exactly what an interior with burgundy needs to stay balanced.
Also consider a soft gold frame if you want to pair it with burgundy. The warm undertones of gold complement the rich hue of burgundy and create a sense of understated elegance. The Hanna in soft gold atop a bed with burgundy pillows is a combination that’s both serene and stylish.
Decision Aid
Which mirror goes well with the color trends of 2027?
The question isn’t just which color you choose, but also which shape matches the mood you want to create. Earth tones call for a sense of grounding: solid shapes, warm materials. Moss green calls for organic and soft elements. Bordeaux calls for balance and structure. This aligns with how the collections at Nordic Style are put together.
- For earth tones: Finn Oak (rectangular, solid oak) or Hanna Wood (organic, pine with a walnut finish).
- For moss green: the " Maj " Oak (arched mirror, natural oak) or the Lara Oak (oval, oak).
- For burgundy: the Nea or Maj in black or soft gold.
- For all three trends: a frameless mirror that simply reflects the space and lets the color palette do all the work.

Materials and colors that complement the color trends
The aluminum frames are available in black, matte white, greige, and soft gold.
- Greige is the color that most closely aligns with the earth-tone trend.
- Soft gold goes well with burgundy and warm, natural interiors.
- Black adds structure to an interior featuring bold colors such as moss green or burgundy.
- Matte white works well if you want to let the colors of the room itself take center stage and use the mirror more as a neutral accent.
The wood options each bring their own color. Natural pine is light and airy, with a pale, Scandinavian tone that pairs well with moss green or earth tones. Walnut pine is darker, richer in color, and complements the warmth of burgundy. Oak has a warm, elegant look with an ultra-matte finish that preserves the wood’s grain—precisely the combination of sophistication and naturalism that defines the trends of 2027.
Frameless mirrors stand out. They have no color of their own, but the matte-polished edge gives them a subtle, sleek finish that complements any color palette. They are also the only type that can be custom-made, making them ideal for larger projects where the mirror needs to be crafted to specific dimensions.
Scandinavian design as the foundation for timeless trends
What stands out about the color trends of 2027 is how well they align with the principles of Scandinavian design: nature, tranquility, materials, and quality. These aren’t just current trends; they are values that have defined Scandinavian interior design for decades. Nordic Style builds on precisely those values. The mirrors are timeless in form and material, yet they evolve in step with the changes in color and atmosphere taking place in interior design.
That’s why a mirror from Nordic Style is a choice that will still feel right five years from now. The shape won’t change, but the space around it might. And a mirror that perfectly complements earth tones and moss green today will fit just as well into your interior in a few years.
Quality and Sustainability
All mirrors from Nordic Style are made of high-quality HD silver mirror glass. This provides a crystal-clear, true-to-life reflection without distortion. The glass is 4 to 6 mm thick, depending on the size, and is equipped with explosion-proof safety film so that the glass remains intact in the event of damage. The wooden backing boards are made from FSC-certified wood, and all wooden frames come from responsibly managed forests where a new tree is planted for every tree that is cut down.
The collection was designed with the belief that quality takes precedence over quantity. That means materials that last, a finish that holds up over the years, and a design that doesn’t follow every new trend but instead maintains its own, understated presence.
Installation and Maintenance
Each mirror comes with a complete set of mounting hardware, including screws and anchors. For mirrors that you want to mount at an angle against the wall, an anti-tilt kit is available in four sizes. It ensures stability and safety and is suitable for framed mirrors. The anti-tilt kit is not suitable for frameless mirrors.
A dry viscose cloth is sufficient for cleaning. For stubborn stains on the glass, a mixture of water, cleaning vinegar, and a drop of dish soap works well. Nordic Style also offers a special mirror glass cleaner that is applied directly to the glass for a streak-free result. This cleaner is not intended for use on the frame. Wooden frames are best dusted regularly with a dry cloth, without using harsh chemicals.
