Colour Trend – Green Smoke

Dark and moody paint colours are a hot look for the upcoming season and will create a visual focal point within your home.  GREEN SMOKE is the latest paint colour by Farrow and Ball to create a stylish designer finish in your home interior. This paint colour brings together rich period green and smoky grey to create a unique colour that is rich and cosy and perfect for both modern and traditional homes.

If you wish to create a bold and classic feel in your chosen room, then partner green smoke with cosy cream and beige hues and team with a traditional tartan or plaid wallpaper that is sure to create a statement within your chosen room. For a more modern designer ambiance within your home why not pair green smoke with tonal grey hues that will create a deep and dark interior setting that oozes contemporary luxury style. Team with a metallic print wallpaper or a natural branch or botanical patterned design that will look great in any room of the home. Smoke green also looks great with pops of elegant colour such as duck egg and mustard and can be partnered with a more period or vintage style of wallpaper on a main feature wall, alcove or chimney breast area.

Deep period colour tones like this work really well across soft furnishings and upholstery and creates zoned areas of colour within your chosen room. For a classic and luxurious interior design then select some heavy velvet or satin curtains in a rich green smoke colour palette and team with tasselled and embroidered matching cushions and throws for the ultimate in opulence and luxury. You could also upholster an elegant chaise lounge in a green smoke velvet upholstery with button or diamante effect detailing for that classic chesterfield design. For a more fresh and uplifting design then select some smoke green and botanical coloured cushions, throws, bedding and rugs in classic floral patterns and prints that will create a more feminine edge to this rather masculine colour choice.

Tonal grey painted furniture makes a perfect partner to a green smoke colour palette and will create a cosy and welcoming feel in any room of the home. Cream painted furniture will also create an inviting ambiance alongside this deep green hue and will create a sense of space and openness against the dark background. If you are feeling particularly glamorous then why not opt for some mirrored furniture items that can be partnered with a variety of mirrored accessories such as frames and candle holders as well as chrome and crystal ceiling lights and lamps that provide added illumination. Traditional furniture such as oak and mahogany will also look perfectly at home with this rich colour palette and can be teamed with a selection of classic artworks, vases and tableware for an elegant and refined interior finish.
