Green has been one of the biggest colour trends in the home this year, but the newest shade is set to dominate homes, according to experts.
Paint experts at The Paint Shed have explained how to incorporate the pistachio green trend into their homes.
Michael Rolland, paint expert and managing director at The Paint Shed, said: “Green can work in many areas of the home, including the kitchen, bedroom, living room, bathroom and even the hallway.
“In the living room, pistachio green can create a sense of serenity, giving it an inviting atmosphere.
“Painting an accent wall in pistachio green and pairing it with neutral furniture is the perfect way to add a touch of sophistication while maintaining a relaxed ambience in the space.”
Adding pistachio green into the bedroom is a great way to create a relaxing atmosphere, great for pairing it with cream and off-white shades.
Kitchens are also a great space in the home if you want to go bold with pistachio green, painting cupboards in the shade or even walls.
The expert recommended pairing it with wooden or marble surfaces to create a “clean and effortless look”.
The paint pro explained: “In contrast to many other green shades, pistachio is a versatile colour which can be paired with a wide range of other shades, depending on the space it’s used in and the desired effect.
“If you’re looking for a neutral option when working with pistachio green, natural wood tones are a great choice.
“Oak, chestnut and walnut browns are a perfect pairing for the warm green tone, sitting harmoniously together without creating a drastic contrast.
“The organic neutral shades of wood browns create a serene space perfect for living rooms and bedrooms alike.”
It also works great with soft pinks to create a balanced and inviting atmosphere, perfect for bedrooms.
The expert said the gentle contrast between the green and pink adds a touch of vibrancy without overwhelming the space.
Michael continued: “For a sophisticated look in living rooms, pair buttery cream shades with pistachio green.
“The neutral cream will create a calming backdrop, allowing the subtle green to take centre stage.
“A pistachio green accent wall behind a cream sofa or fireplace, perfectly compliments the space, creating a subtle yet elegant look.”
