Small accents of colour from the bright pink bouquet and green topiary give the room so much character, and the textured carpet and cushions help it feel warm and cosy.
Greenery has dominated the world of interiors for the past year, partly thanks to Pantone naming it 2017’s colour of the year and the surge in popularity of houseplants. It’s a colour that reminds us of the natural
world, and can look absolutely beautiful when paired with darker tones. An earthy green gives a room a warm, classic feel, whilst a jewel tone like emerald conveys elegance.
GORGEOUS GREENS
Deep emerald green velvet is so lush, looking just perfect in this stunning living area. The period details and high ceilings, contrasted with this blocky yet contemporary sofa, make for a really interesting space. Soft furnishings such as the long, heavy curtains help keep the warmth in. All this look needs is a roaring fire and a gorgeous, modern throw to curl up with.
WONDERFUL WHITES
If your space doesn’t get as much sunlight as you would like, then you may benefit by going lighter. White walls reflect lots of light, helping to make the room appear brighter and more inviting. Combine this with sumptuous soft furnishings made from thick, textured materials and plenty of candles to get that much admired ‘hygge’ look.
This beautifully snuggly living room looks like the ideal place to hibernate this winter. Lots of cushions and chunky throws create a squidgy, cosy country paradise to curl up in with a good book and a glass of mulled wine.
