Colour Trend - Amazon Green

While the weather at the moment may be more rain than rainforest there is no reason not to inject some colour and life into our home decors to counteract the miserable and grey British weather. AMAZON GREEN is a perfect choice for creating a bright and colourful interior finish whilst maintaining a refined and stylish finish in your chosen room.

Colour Palettes

Due to its botanical nature Amazon green works particularly well with fresh and earthen natural hues such as clay, fern green, sage and brown to give a rich and cosy feel with an injection of fresh and bright colour. Crisp white is an obvious partner for this bright rainforest green which also looks great with accents of bold turquoise, yellow and lime for a more tropical inspired design. For a more sophisticated and classic take on this colour then marry Amazon green with rich aubergine, teal blue or duck egg for a colourful yet refined finish.

Cushions

Colourful cushions are a great way of introducing a new colour palette into your home without a complete redecoration. In keeping with the botanical theme, include some simple Amazon green and white cushions that feature delicate leaves and foliage and combine with some colourful floral cushions in a variety of garden hues such as blue, lavender, lemon and sage for visual detail and colour. A more tropical theme can be complimented with Amazon green palm and banana leaf designs that can be paired with bold turquoise, lime and yellow for a Caribbean inspired feel.

Upholstery

If you are fed up of looking at plain or outdated sofas, chairs, stools or even headboards then a bright coloured fabric can give a new lease of life to your furniture items. A classic chesterfield style sofa would look great in a bold Amazon green velvet fabric, combining two of this year’s biggest interior trends. For a combination of modern colour and period opulence then why not upholster an ornately carved occasional, dining or dressing table chair with an Amazon green satin or cotton fabric to create a pop of colour in your chosen room.

Accessories

To capture the rainforest theme that comes with this green colour tones then a selection of crystal or plain glass accessories will create a watery effect that is light and elegant with a hint of glamour. For a more natural and botanical feel then add some simple natural oak vases, frames and accessories that will create natural beauty against the bright Amazon green backdrop. If you like sleek and masculine interior designs then why not opt for a refined collection of black ceramics or black mirrored accessories for a modern designer finish.

Furniture

Golden oak furniture will make the perfect partner for an Amazon interior colour scheme as the rich and cosy natural tones will compliment the natural backdrop and create a classic space that brings a feeling of the outdoors, indoors. White painted furniture will create a sense of space and light that compliments the bold colour scheme and adds illumination to more compact interior spaces. For a deeper and richer ambiance then opt for some black painted, walnut or mahogany furniture that will create a cosy feel that is refined and stylish.
