Green Design Schemes

Green is the original colour of nature. Its association with the outdoors makes green a reassuring, soothing colour, ideal calming areas such as bedrooms and bathrooms. Select muted tones like 'Aquamarine' or 'Ambleside' for a restful scheme. Or use bolder statement shades to create vibrancy and energy with 'Sage & Onions’ or 'Green Verditer.' Jewel tones like 'Puck' or 'Mid Azure Green' work really well in an all-over scheme for cosy living spaces.

Recently, dark greens have displaced dark blues as our most-loved colours. The muted 'Sage Green' has been a staple of the Little Greene collection for many years. However, stronger tones have come to the fore, including the lively ‘Jewel Beetle’.

One of the wonderful characteristics of green is that its makeup means it is very versatile. Green can be used in many interior spaces with ease because of its neutrality without being beige.
Ruth Mottershead, Creative Director at Little Greene

Utilise colour blocking to pair the muted tones of 'Ambleside' with the classic blend of blue green, 'Aquamarine - Mid.' Accompany with natural wood and rattan furnishings for a tranquil environment, perfect for bedrooms.

Add an Element Of Drama

Deep, sumptuous green shades work well as an all-over scheme to create immediate impact and warmth. Pair 'Jewel Beetle' with dark, rich shades such as ‘Chocolate Colour' and use delicate, pale greens in place of white for ceilings and trim.

Pairing green with an off white is a classic combination and a soft off white with a hint of green such as Pique ties fabulously with these dark statement green tones.
