Create… calm in a kitchen
Fresh and bright or dark and dramatic, green is a great all-rounder
* GROUND WITH GREEN A nature-inspired colour that comes in many hues, green can be quiet and calm, upbeat and invigorating, even earthy and soothing, so it's super-versatile. A popular choice for kitchens, green has a grounding effect which works well in busy spaces, helping to bring calm and unity.
* PICK A SHADE Green cabinetry will bring a hefty dose of colour to a kitchen, but different shades can change the look completely, from cool minty tones that feel modern and fresh to classic dark greens that look timeless and traditional.
* USE AS AN ACCENT Cabinets aren't the only way of incorporating green into a kitchen scheme. Consider a splashback in a glossy green tile, panelling painted a lush leafy green or a feature wallpaper in a lively botanical print.
* MIX MATERIALS This easygoing shade can be mixed with different materials without the worry of them jarring, whether that's wooden worktops, a timber floor or stone tiles. It also makes a natural foil for metallic finishes, from burnished brass to copper or steel on handles, fixtures and appliances.
Create... a relaxed vibe
Set the mood with on-trend green in soft and soothing tones
* BRING CALM Green is at its most restful in soft shades of sage green, moss and olive. Evoking a sense of balance and connection with nature, muted greens are perfect in spaces where you want to feel calm and relaxed, such as living rooms and bedrooms.
