Colour Trend – Botanic Green

This year is already moving quickly and before we know it spring will be upon us! This is the time of year when the interior design world starts to look at new and exciting colour palettes for the upcoming season and this spring is set to be all about BOTANIC GREEN colour schemes that create a fresh and uplifting ambiance in any room of the home. This colour palette brings the natural colours of the outdoor landscape into your home and creates a burst of colour that is sure to create an eye-catching feature within your interior spaces.

For a simple and clean interior look then why not partner botanic green with crisp and sleek white for a classic interior design that works in both modern and traditional homes. Team with a vertical or horizontal striped wallpaper for added visual detail. For a more tonal look that incorporates a variety of earthen colour hues then pair botanic green with soft greys, mocha brown and taupe to create a cosy interior space that is colourful yet subtle. This could be teamed with a simple leaf patterned wallpaper for a soft and delicate finish.  If you are a lover of colour then why not bring together a variety of garden inspired shades such as botanic green, fuchsia, mint, lilac and lemon and partner with a classic or abstract floral wallpaper that will create a focal point on a main feature wall, alcove or chimney breast area.

If you don’t wish to use botanic green as your main colour, then it can be used as an accent tone across your soft furnishings and accessories. Botanic green will make a great colour for a set of curtains featuring garden inspired leaf, tree or floral print patterns and can be partnered with co-ordinating floral cushions and bedding for an elegant and refined interior space. For a pop of colour in an otherwise plain room why not select some botanic green upholstered sofas and armchairs and pair with a botanic green rug that will take centre stage in your home interior. Partner with a selection of white, grey and green vases, light shades and ornaments for a co-ordinated interior finish. Gold accessories also look great against a botanic green backdrop and are perfect for adding a hint of opulence into your home.

Traditional oak furniture will complement the garden inspired tones of this colour scheme and provide a classic and cosy ambiance in any room of the home. For a twist of modern and traditional interior design then why not opt for some cream, white or grey painted furniture items that will create a light and welcoming feel within your home and provide a country cottage inspired look to your room. If you prefer a more sleek and minimal design, then some white high gloss furniture will create a bold contrast against the bright botanic green backdrop and is perfect for contemporary home interiors.
