'Forest': Green Interiors

With an ever-growing desire to immerse ourselves in the natural environment, green interiors offer an opportunity to harness the soothing power of nature. We have revisited our archive to present ‘Forest’: a curated collection of paints and wallpapers that bring the natural world into your home. As part of this collection, we have introduced a new, verdant wallpaper colourway: ‘Upper Brook St – Night Garden’.

Forest Interior: Versatile & Timeless

Green is the go-to colour for interiors, neither too cool, nor too warm. This enduring, versatile shade is suited to both period and contemporary spaces. Green has recently seen a resurgence as we seek to reconnect with nature.

Greens of all tones - from soft muted greens to deep green paint colours - combine with earthy hues, leafy wallpapers and our growing love of houseplants to blur the line between outdoors and in. This combination creates a sense of positivity in the home.

We created ‘Forest’ to respond to our yearning to envelop ourselves in the natural environment. The selection has been curated to combine foliage-based patterns, deep woodland hues, natural tones and the myriad of green hues in our palette. Our colour experts have identified how these shades can be used to create comfortable, tranquil environments that bring the outdoors in.

Introducing Botanical Mural Wallpapers

We are delighted to launch a new green colourway as part of the ‘Forest’ collection: Upper Brook Street – Night Garden. This striking, large-scale mural features richly coloured kniphofia flowers – or ‘red-hot pokers’ – set against a verdant green forest. With its scenic scale and depiction of layered foliage, it envelops a room with a cocooning and restorative atmosphere.

‘Forest’ also includes treasured, leafy wallpapers such as: Vine, Fern, Richmond Green, Broadwick Street and Stag Toile. These papers combine with fresh greens like Jewel Beetle, Citrine and Obsidian Green. The Forest collection also draws upon dark hues like Purple Brown and Pompeian Ash. Baked Cherry and Mambo are also featured as contrasting highlight colours alongside various shades of green.

Dark Green Interiors

“It has been fascinating to see how customers have embraced colour and pattern over the past few years, with many recognising the importance of both time spent in the natural world and how transforming the home environment can lift our mood and have a positive effect on how we feel.

“With ‘Forest’, we wanted to provide inspiration and ideas for embracing these green shades in every room. No matter where or which style of property, there is a way to incorporate this rich and varied woodland palette of colours and papers, changing the atmosphere of any room to create tranquil, positive spaces that make us feel nurtured, harnessing the calming effects of nature indoors.”

“Our ‘Forest’ images show how to team leaf prints and woodland inspired wallpapers with the Little Greene palette to create characterful and impactful spaces. These design schemes aim to bring the freshness of the beautiful outdoors into your home, offering a change of visual scenery, an oasis of green to soothe and calm the mind.“
