Green is the colour on everyone's lips this year. It has been named as Pantone colour of the year for 2017 and will be seen popping up in interior design schemes everywhere. It’s an restful colour to live with and we believe that all shades of green look good together – just like in nature.
Green is a perennial favourite and the hue that heralds the arrival of spring and summer – and here at Holloways it is one of our favourites too! It is the best colour to use in garden rooms and conservatories, the room where you bring the outside in. We can show you paints, wallpapers, fabrics, cushions and throws to use in a green-inspired room.
Garden Green
For this garden room we have chosen a Suffolk table with hand-painted legs in the colour ‘Cactus’ and Long Island dining chairs with loose covers in ‘Emma Sage’. The abundant plants on the windowsill reflect the green floral pattern and nature repeats the shades of green with the view of the garden through the window.
Rainforest Green
The Trafalgar sofa is covered in an exotic rainforest fabric and surrounded by leafy plants and rattan furntiure. The theme is even continued into the lampshades - with their fern leaf design. To get this look at home just let your inner gardener loose — cultivate large and luscious indoor plants to share the space with you.
Scandi Green
This garden room has a completely different look — a clean modernist style. Barcelona embodies the principles of modernist design — simple lines with bent wood arms, celebrating the beauty of natural materials and excellent craftsmanship. This is echoed in the beautiful timber used for both windows and floor. The bright green fabric used on the Barcelona furniture reflects the colour of green fields outside the window.
Bright Green
This bright and sunny room has a great connection to the garden and the hillside beyond through its large windows. So, the theme here is the colour green and the great outdoors. A Mayfair corner sofa in natural abaca with an over-sized coffee table maximise the seating area and make a wonderful entertaining space. The bright pistachio green of the Mayfair sofa cushions is lifted with a selection of striped green, and fern-pattered cushions.
Leaf Green
Our collection of designer wallpapers at Holloways features some fantastic green-themed designs. This example of a leafy tropical forest, complete with a monkey, is a wonderful way of making a feature wall.
Instant Green
You can instantly refresh a room with this year’s colour if you have a fairly neutral colour scheme. Simply add scatter cushions and throws to introduce your favourite shade of green. We have a selection of new cushions and throws in our showrooms, ranging from deep green velvet to floral patterns, which will add a touch of this year’s colour to your home.
Visit Holloways to get inspiration for your new colour scheme – whether you are re-decorating a room or just adding a splash of this year’s favourite colour – we are happy to share some ideas.
