Who doesn’t like green? Okay, some strange exotic souls may not care for this major player in nature, this image of life itself, the colour of the WhatsApp logo. For others, it’s the very thing we want in our homes, to calm or energise us, depending on how we want to feel. With the aid of this blog, you can find the tint of green – specifically light green – that’s right for your interior design.
Light green interior design for zest!
You’ve managed to drag yourself from your bed and made your way to the bathroom. Can you handle lime tiles first thing? Wake up to some zest in your light green interior design to get you set for the day!
Partner your lime green with vibrant tones of lemony yellow or coral pink and you can fully wake up to all the cheery colours. The brighter the colours you use, the more light will be reflected, so keep those tiles glossy. They’ll mist up, but mirrors are necessary in a bathroom as well as adding to the reflective surfaces. And that mist will be the perfect atmosphere for the right plant. Green naturally invites the use of plants and flowers, bringing vitality and health into your space.
For your window dressings, roller blinds made from moisture-resistant fabric will be ideal for the extreme temperatures of the bathroom environment. The last thing you need is mold to interfere with your light green interior design.
Light green interior design for elegance
Green suggests the fertility of nature and, therefore the likelihood of food. Literally feeding this basic psychological drive, green helps us relax and feel safe and secure, letting us know we’re in a land of plenty. So what better colour for your dining room? Your guests will salivate and feel safe as they dine surrounded by your light green interior design.
Combine with earthy browns and stone. You’ll be tapping into the primal drives with these natural neutrals while still providing your guests with a sophisticated ambiance.
A simple modern chandelier will provide the perfect touch of elegance and contrast. Keep patterns and textures subtle to add depth while keeping things refined. Shutters, classic yet modern, will be the finishing touch to your light green interior design.
Light green interior design for a restful space
Science will tell you the colour green operates on a short wavelength, and that’s why it promotes a sense of calmness and serenity. Yeah, I don’t understand it either, but it is why light green interior design is perfect for the bedroom.
Add pastel colours, especially lavender, the colour and the fragrance, and you’ll be asleep in no time. Combine with neutral grey and you’ll further enhance the sense of tranquility of your light green interior design.
To help you along to a restful night’s sleep, look to window dressings made from blackout material. How you hang curtains or blinds will determine how much of a blackout effect you can achieve. You can decrease the light that seeps in by hanging blinds outside of the recess, and by having curtains run past where the window ends.
Light green interior design for small rooms
Light green will help make your small room appear bigger, as will any lighter tone of colour.
Furniture should be kept to a minimum. Pieces may be utilitarian, but their form can still add grace and beauty. A bold pattern will work well and allow a small room to punch above its weight. Texture and pattern will add character without having to add more stuff. A mirror in the right place, especially a tall one, floor to ceiling, will make the room feel larger and give the illusion of depth. A tall floor lamp will draw the eye up, adding height to the room. For a modern look, an LED panel may be the answer to lighten up your light green interior design.
To keep things neat in your petite room, a Perfect Fit blind will literally fit perfectly. By clipping directly onto the uPVC or aluminium frames, they take up minimum space. You even have a choice between Venetian blinds, roller blinds or cellular blinds (perfect for saving energy) to go in your Perfect Fit frames.
No matter the purpose of the room, light green interior design is surprisingly adaptable and can suit any room or mood you wish to work, rest or play in.
