The colour green is loved by many and not surprisingly there are 100s of shades ranging from palest eau-de-nil to deep British racing green, with Emerald Green as the Pantone colour of 2013. Here's a list of reasons why green is good for your home:
- It has positive psychological properties such as peace and harmony
- Green links us to nature so bring the outside in - green house plants and foliage increase positive feelings and reduce stress
- It works beautifully with other colours: fresh green and white is a crisp combination, muted and mossy soft tones go well with natural materials such as stone and wood
- Don't believe that blue and green shouldn't be seen, they are made for each other!
- It's traditional - we have 5 shades of Green in Artworks, our heritage range of glossy ceramic wall tiles and authentic mouldings
- It's authentic - original Victorian floor tile patterns incorporate green with the other traditional colours of black, white, buff and blue
- It's modern - lime green Glassworks Splashbacks glass tiles are stunning in kitchens, promoting a clean and bright environment
- Add zing to a colour scheme by using green as an accent
- Emerald green communicates luxury and elegance (as in the jewel)
