Greens go soft and silvery

Colour trends from NZ House and Garden magazine

Tonal greens layer up for a soothing scheme. Try restful foliage tones...

An easy way to create a restful colour palette is to bring the colours of nature indoors. Look to soothing leaf tones and the way similar soft greens play off each other, especially under subdued lighting. This bedroom may spill over with similar silvery greens, but it’s the clever use of repetition and contrast that makes it work. A colourblocked headboard echoes the rectilinear shapes of the pillows and continues around the corner for an unexpected twist. Use dark, dusky tones, such as the charcoal euro pillow and velvet chair, to anchor soft greens and provide contrast.
