Green's Gift to Interiors
TRENDS 11.11.24
In contemporary interior design, green has emerged as a symbol of tranquillity and natural elegance. From soothing sage to vibrant emerald, green breathes life and balance into any space. Let’s discover how this versatile tone can redefine rooms and interiors.
The dark green panelling on the walls creates a rich, enveloping atmosphere, making a bold statement that's both cosy and commanding. Plush velvet armchairs in a lively shade of green draw the eye, providing a comfortable nook that promises relaxation amidst the room’s stately charm. The natural light streaming through the large windows gives the green panels and furniture a dynamic quality, changing with the time of day. Accents like the wooden elements, the leather details on the furniture, and the curated selection of books add layers of texture and interest.

The soft mint colour graces the walls and detailed ceiling, creating a cohesive look that's both classic and on-trend. Natural light from the window bathes the room, highlighting the green’s gentle brightness and the intricate mouldings. Furnishings in complementary shades, from the plush armchairs to the floral sofa, sit atop a traditional rug, offering a rich visual texture that balances with the room’s soft colour scheme. The retro orange pendant light with its warm glow and the brass accents add a touch of cool to the airy room.

The striking Porter Teleo emerald wallpaper, a canvas of rich green adorned with abstract gold accents adds a touch of luxury to the living room. The vibrant wall becomes the focal point, complemented by the deep, dark bookcases that flank the fireplace, creating a dramatic yet balanced contrast. A sunburst mirror with golden rays echoes the wallpaper's opulence and serves as a stunning centrepiece above the mantel.
