In the hustle and bustle of our lives, a little rejuvenation and revitalization sounds pretty good. Each year, Pantone Colour Institute selects a shade that symbolises the mood and attitude of global culture. Greenery - a zesty yellow-green shade is the Pantone 2017’s Colour of the year reflects nature and its refreshing aspect. Using this color in your home decor would revive your homes with energy and vigor. When envisioning a space, it can be hard to find the right balance of colours. So a pop of the Pantone color combined well with the walls, furniture, and decor could revamp the look of your abode brilliantly.
Let’s see how we can add greenery to our home decor:
- Paint your walls
With an increase in the use of muted colours and minimal designs in our homes, greenery could be added in the most interesting ways. Paint a wall entirely with green when you have other walls in white. Greenery always goes with gray, white and a few pastel shades.
You can also try painting all your walls green but make sure the linens and furnishings are subtle to not make it appear like it’s overdone. It might be a bold move but then who would mind waking up to a lush green colour?
If you are commitment-phobic and do not wish to paint your walls green, you can put wallpapers with textures. A design punch that is easy to remove when you wish to get the green changed.
- Add accessories that celebrate nature
Greenery is the colour of nature. Use decorative accessories and home decor accents that highlight the plants you keep inside your home. Use transparent vases to put in the artificial plants.
Wall hanging or paintings showing nature goes well in dark-coloured rooms. Table lamps and coasters are other accessories that draw your attention to them.
- Home Furnishings
Embrace greenery in your interior furnishings and soothe your souls. If you’re not ready to commit to painting your walls in this shade, start with window curtains. This energetic burst of colour gives artistic style to neutral gray and white spaces.
Add an equation of sophistication with green pillows and cushions, mixed and matched in your bedrooms.
A neutral sofa paired with a bold green side chair can result in creating a high-end designer look. You can also use crushed velvet sofas to add funk to home decor.
- Splash of colour with one element
Add pops of greenery around your home, like a door, or around the stairs. They add an element of surprise to your home and revamp the entire look of the space.
In addition to window frames and wooden chairs, cabinets painted in green act as a captivating focal point in your space.
With a bright colour like greenery, it can be a fun challenge to create a cohesive space. So take the challenge, be right on trend and update your home with this fresh and zesty green colour. Build a space with your home decor ideas that will make people go green with envy.
