ARCHITECTURAL DIGEST
EARTHY ELEGANCE
Say goodbye to beige monotony; green and rust are here to steal the spotlight. These colors effortlessly blend sophistication with the organic beauty of nature, creating a palette that is both timeless and refreshing. From serene forest greens to warm, burnt oranges, these hues are the perfect backdrop for a modern, elegant home.
Rust and amber, with their warm and earthy undertones, bring a sense of coziness to any space. They pair exceptionally well with natural materials like wood and stone. Introduce rust through accent pieces, such as throw pillows, blankets, or even a statement piece of furniture. Green is even more versatile. An easy, instant way to incorporate green is through houseplants or botanical prints. Of course, you can get as creative as you like and go all the way with a deep forest green couch such as the one in our Central Condo project, pictured below.

BALANCE IS KEY
When working with these bold neutrals, it’s essential to maintain balance. Consider using plain tones like whites and creams to soften the intensity of green and rust. If you’re picking a beige couch, you can play around with saturated accent chairs (and vice versa). We recommend always breaking up the colour palette in a room to add interest and visual depth.
You can also work in small doses by experimenting with accessories like artwork, vases, or even tableware to infuse these hues into your home. These small touches can make a big impact, adding character and personality to your space, without overwhelming the room.
