Green is Good!




Traditional Indian lime green walls play beautifully with crisp white chairs and trim.
Touches of green in palm, pears, and paintings,  pop with white walls and timber floors.

The interior above is perhaps of the"when in doubt paint it white" mindset, to compliment the beautiful wood flooring.  I just love the white on white table lamp on the Parsons table, and the addition of a simple potted palm and a bowl of pears!


Green can do no wrong in my mind.  It's cool,  fresh and goes with everything.  After all it is the colour of nature and I always love bringing the outside in.  Go all the way and paint it lime!


Look how wonderful these traditional colours of India work in this stunning apartment in Jaipur, below.  The glimpse of hot pink in the distance gives a sense of guilty pleasure to the eye,  and of course the crisp white contrast adds just enough relief!


  










Pablo's lime green robe and pure white Y fronts!
Picasso, the quintessential colourist of the 20th Century knows the value of coordinating crisp white and lime green!




Brave colour choice of lime green goes all the way in this fab vintage interior!

Paint it all green,  upholster everything in the same green on green tropical palm print, add a 'white elephant' and a hint of sunflower yellow!
