CURATED COLOR: Shades of Green Drawn From Nature

Step outside your door. What is the most prominent color you see? During the warmer months, the answer is green. Designers are seeing a strong infatuation with green, in all of its gorgeous shades.

Shades of green promote well-being in your spaces, and when paired with botanical patterns and textures, the result is magical. Biophilic design is the concept of bringing natural elements into your space to promote a connection to the natural world. Color and pattern in your rooms help promote this connection.

How can you use green in your space?  Use green on kitchen cabinets and islands. Try monochromatic color-washing using various shades on walls and trim. Bring in lively fabrics for furniture and pillows. Add wallpaper to incorporate botanicals. Of course, you can always bring live plants into your space, but rest assured, even if you don’t have a green thumb, you can still benefit from this rejuvenating color!
