Emerald green: let's get this spring going
Emerald green is a color you should splash your home with to get ready for spring.
Spring is only a month away: we might as well get ready and bring some freshness into our homes. How? Our suggestion is emerald green. It’s a slightly darker shade of green that’s ideal to get us through the transition from winter to spring, and then to summer. Besides, precisely because it’s not the lightest shade of green, it will do wonders during every other season too. Are you ready to feel like you’re Dorothy and you’ve just stepped into the magical land of Oz?
A forest at your feet
Imagine stepping into your home...and feeling like you’ve just entered an enchanted forest! It’s an illusion you can easily create by choosing green to style your floors. There’s a few different options in front of you: you could decide to go for a carpet, for example. Carpets can be amazing: they make walking barefoot at home actually pleasant. At the same time, they can gather so much dust that vacuuming becomes a full-time job! Plus, we’re getting close to spring and there’s already enough hay-fever around: are you trying to set a record for the highest number of sneezes in a row? Choose emerald green stone, instead: classy, elegant, it will last for a lifetime and it will never cease to impress.
Who has time for real plants?
Why get an actual plant when you can get a taylor-made, high-quality wallpaper with the soothing colors of nature instead? There’s an almost infinite number of wallpapers you could get, so go ahead and explore! Just a few tips. First of all, be mindful of quality: some cheap wallpapers do surely look nice, but just give them a few months of dust and humidity and they will start spotting and cracking up. Then, don’t overdo it! If you've already styled your floor with green, there’s no need to get green walls too. Finally, choose a wallpaper with different shades of green and multiple motifs and decorations: your walls have never looked more interesting.
A jungle above you
Do you know what would match perfectly with a green floor? Green lamps! You could scatter a few green wall or table lamps around, but our favorite option is to choose a bold statement piece, like this emerald green chandelier. Skillfully handcrafted by the glassblowing masters of the Venetian tradition, this chandelier will bless any room with class and elegance. The intricacy of its arms and the green pendants will give you the feeling of standing under a natural ceiling made of branches and leaves. Moreover, a piece like this is priceless: glassblowing is a century-old tradition that will never become obsolete: you can safely pass your chandelier on to the future generations.
Live like Oz the Great and Powerful
In for a dime, in for a dollar: you’ve already picked a majestic chandelier, why settle now? Take a look at these monumental sofas: they’re fit for Oz’s emerald green palace...but they’re fit for your place too! It might be a bit of a risky move, but get out of your comfort zone and place them in a slightly decadent, urban-styled living room: can you imagine how spectacular it would be to step into the room and suddenly spot these royal sofas?

An environment-friendly solution
If you’ve designed your dining room to be informal, and you have a passion for recycling, these chairs might be perfect for you. These lively, green chairs are 100% made from recycled PET bottles: you can purchase them guilt-free. Some advice: don’t put them near any other furniture made from artificial materials! Play with contrasts and match them with a rustic wooden table: the two completely different materials will bring each other out.
Say yes to emerald green accessories
If you’re not planning on filling your home with green surfaces, we suggest you strategically place a few emerald green items around. It could be anything, like a mirror with a green frame, or a bookshelf, or a purely decorative piece, like a statue. This one takes inspiration from the traditional Chinese guardian lions, and emerald green has been picked as its base color. If the piece you’ve chosen is big enough, like this statue for example, we recommend dedicating a whole corner of the room to it. Place a spotlight above or below it to complete the dramatic effect!
