colour insight: how to use green

Yellow is the perfect partner to this green in a room by NAINOA. Try Myrtle Green from Mylands for the look

Out of all the cooler-toned colours, green is one of the easiest and most versatile to work with. But it's what you pair it with that can make it truly come alive.

Happily, green is at the centre of the colour wheel, meaning you can combine it with both warm and cool hues. Greens with a blue base are impactful, so introducing soft tones of clay white and chalky grey brings a calming feel. Greens with a yellow undertone, such as olive, pop alongside gold or bronze, enhancing their warmth. Essentially, almost anything looks good with green-but don't let that overwhelm, as these perfect pairings will help you edit the choice right down.
