Colour Trend - Hunters Green

If you have ever walked the halls and rooms of a stately home then you will no doubt have registered the rich and rustic tones of a HUNTERS GREEN colour scheme. This colour is not just reserved for the historic interiors of the wealthy; this colour also looks amazing in small and cosy country cottages and rural escapes. The muted and deep green tones of this colour work wonderfully with a wide variety of colour partnerships to create visual impact in any room of the home.

For a simple and cosy country design then partner hunters green with rich cream and biscuit tones to create a balance between bold deep colour and elegant neutral tones. For an added highland inspired look then team this colour with some tartan print wallpaper or some wildlife inspired designs featuring, foxes, pheasants and hares. If you prefer a more elegant and stately style of interior then pair hunters green with simple antique white, deep claret red and accents of gold to create a majestic and opulent look in your chosen interior space. This colour scheme can be co-ordinated with Victorian or Art Deco style wallpaper for an added touch of glamour. For a more natural and botanical look then add hunters green to fern green, chocolate brown and burnt orange to create a cosy autumnal inspired design.

Velvet and satin fabrics look great in a hunters green colour scheme as they compliment the rich and opulent depth of the colour tone. For a luxurious regal design then upholster a classic armchair or chaise lounge and partner with a chic black or gold painted frame for added elegance and period authenticity. These can be teamed with heavy swathed curtains with gold tasselled tie backs for a refined boutique interior design.  For a more soft and feminine interior design then why not opt for some botanical inspired soft furnishings such as floral curtains, bedding, upholstery and cushions in hunters green and pastel hues that will create visual pattern and colour in even the most neutral of interior spaces.

For a classic period look then why not partner a hunters green colour scheme with some traditional oak or mahogany furniture items for a stately ambiance that is cosy and refined. Opt for statement items such as a grand dining table, dressing table or a traditional dresser for an opulent and luxurious finish. If you prefer a more light and airy, natural feel then you can select some crisp white or cream painted furniture items that will create a bright and illuminating ambiance that is perfect for smaller home interiors. Partner with a range of accessories such as natural oak mirrors, picture frames and ornaments or more luxurious gold candelabras, chandeliers, vases and tableware that will create an air of drama and opulence in any room of the home.
