Fall is upon us, and with it comes the opulence and warmth of this year’s autumn/winter trends. One of the standout trend for this season has been creeping in for the past couple of years and has finally arrived in full force: deep, velvety, delicious green. From last year’s tangy lime greens, the colour trend has developed, gorwn and deepend - becoming the perfect shade for any home. No, really - It is literally the perfect pop of colour in any and all rooms. Take at our 6 ways to bring chic into your home this fall – straight from the experts themselves.
1 | With neutrals
If you have a lot of neutrals in your home and are thinking “green is a bit of a stretch…” – think again! Dark green complements creamy, neutral tones exquisitely. Even better – you won’t need to change your whole décor to accommodate for the colour!

2 | With pink
Opposites attract, and like Yin and Yang, pink and green work better together. Pairing these two shades has become something of a trending topic in the world of interior design, and whether it’s through wallpaper or a couple of cushions on your couch or bed, this is a pairing worth trying.

3 | With wallpaper
With so many gorgeous prints and patters to chose from, wallpaper is a great way to make a bold interior statement, and there are many ways to use it without covering all 4 walls. Cover just 1 wall to create an elegant accent, or frame large pieces of wallpaper you love for a lighter touch.

4 | With soft furnishings
Being the beautiful and rich colour that it is, deep green can make a big impact in the tiniest of details. Try bringing it into your home with pillows covers for the bedroom and throws and cushion covers in your living room.

5 | With gold
Nothing says capital-O-opulant quite like the moody pairing of dark green against hues of gold. Think: gold or brass lamp bases with green shades. If this match seems too indulgent for a big room, try it in your bathroom for an added touch of luxury.

6 | With Monochrome
You can never go wrong with adding a pop of colour to a monochrome decor, but our favourite 'pop' has to be dark green. It gives a sense of pure indulgence and will ground the otherwise sharp look that monochrome is all about.
