When it comes to the colour green, we go by the rule “green should always be seen.” You may have noticed there has been a major influx of green pieces in the fashion world, with top brands opting for emerald or moss green pieces. The same can be said for Interior Design.
Before we get in depth about why we love this colour, let’s go back to the basics. The word “green” in modern English comes from the Middle English and Anglo-Saxon word ‘grene’ meaning ‘grass’ and ‘grow’ in German. It’s no wonder that we associate the colour with nature, energy, growth and harmony. So when it comes to injecting this colour into your home, you’ll most likely be seeking ways to create a soothing and balanced atmosphere. Adding colour to your space can be a big commitment. We’re here to show you how you can do this subtlety and effectively without breaking the budget.
If you’re not completely on the green bandwagon, but are intrigued to try it out, opt for a green lounge chair. A lounge chair is the perfect piece to trial colour trends. Not only is it versatile in more spaces than just the living room, it can complement existing furniture in a neutral shade. Take for example a beige sofa or grey rug. Pair these with a green fabric or velvet lounge chair and you’ll create a complementary colour palette.
We all love to add decor pieces to our home, it’s the easiest and most successful way to add personality and your own sense of style to a space. Plus, decor pieces can be easily interchanged or swapped depending on your mood or the season. Simple. The trend of plants in the home is rapidly on the rise. As much as we love the real deal, we know it can be difficult to keep up with the maintenance and upkeep they require. Insert: artificial plants. We know this is a touchy subject for some, but if it works for you, go with it.
Another way to add some green to your space is through artwork. There's nothing better than a beautifully hand painted print that just sits above your bed or sofa. We honestly could not live without wall art and an option like our Modern Teal Abstract Print or our Summer Leaves Wall Art Print will inject that touch of green without overdoing it.
Whichever piece you choose, our recommendation is to try green in your home. Whether you opt for a small piece or a statement making sofa, we could all do with a little more harmony and balance in our lives. You won’t regret it.
