Green bedroom interiors

Ten calm green bedrooms that showcase the power of natural colours

A fire-damaged apartment enlivened with green paint and a nature-informed mural with dripping gold accents feature in our latest lookbook, which contains 10 green bedrooms.

Whether pale, dark, pistachio, sage or mossy, green tones have the ability to add life to interiors. The colour is becoming increasingly popular for bedrooms due to its restful character and connection to nature.

Going green might be the key to a better night's sleep.

This is the latest in our lookbooks series, which provides visual inspiration from Dezeen's archive. For more inspiration see previous lookbooks showcasing peaceful bedrooms, green living rooms and green bathrooms.

The green-toned bedroom features parquet flooring along with cabinets and wall panelling adorned with angular details. The pale green hue of the walls works with the whites and light greys to maintain a subtle palette in the space.
