Create a soothing space with Vivechrom Colour of the Year

Feeling connected with nature is good for our wellbeing. The Lush palette, with colors inspired by woodland scenes and forest floors, can help us feel part of the world around us and create a familiar, soothing atmosphere in our homes. 

Feeling connected with nature has been shown to have profound and positive effects on our wellbeing. The Lush palette, with its soothing colors inspired by the tones you find in woodlands and forests, can help us feel in touch with the natural world. Bringing an echo of the landscape into our homes, Lush colors are ideal for creating a supportive and restorative space. They also work brilliantly alongside Vivechrom Colour of the Year, Wild WonderTM, and can create dynamic color combinations that feel calm and comfortable. 

Try these four decorating ideas to bring Lush colors to life... 

Create a soothing living space


In this light and airy living space, a two-tone split wall in Lush colors creates a warm and tranquil feel. The combination of Wild WonderTM and soft green highlights the proportions of the room while making it feel cosy. Lush colors work perfectly with natural elements, so bring in plenty of greenery to complete the look.

Be color-creative in the bedroom

 

Lush colours might be rooted in nature but that doesn’t mean they can’t be used for a grand gesture. Here, an oversized arch, painted in soft green and outlined with a band of Vivechrom Colour of the Year 2023, Wild WonderTM, creates a dramatic trompe l’oeil bedhead against a peaty purple wall.

Paint yourself a checkerboard wall

 

Used in combination, Lush shades are perfect for adding a splash of personality without overpowering a room. Created by painting narrow stripes (in soft lilac and Vivechrom Colour of the Year 2023, Wild WonderTM) against a soft green wall, this checkerboard feature adds a playful touch to a child’s room while keeping a sense of tranquillity.
