Lush Meadow: Autumn – Winter Weekly Colour Report

Completing our Autumn – Winter Colour Report series for 2016 is the regal tone of Lush Meadow. There is so much potential for room inspiration to bloom with this rich emerald shade; if your room design ideas consist of creating an elegant yet natural ambience in the home, then this is the colour for you.

Lush Meadow is a symbol of vitality and celebration. Despite being one of the most modish shades around today, it possesses an untapped goldmine of vintage charm, harkening back to 1920’s fashion, letting you incorporate this green tone into an enormous range of room design ideas.

For our final colour report for this year, we’ve decided to shake things up a bit – gone are the bedroom and living room designs – today, we are showing you how to style a vintage games room using the most modish colours.

Wood panelling is ideal for a games room, evoking that classic sophistication from another era, and adding a natural glamour to your interior. However, we know it’s not all homes which enjoy this luxury, so brown wallpaper or paint are perfectly suitable alternatives.

Coordinate your walls with your floor; our room inspiration image features wooden floorboards, but a brown carpet would also work. Make your flooring a lighter tone of brown than your walls to lend a touch of definition to the room, preventing it from becoming a dreary monotone affair.

Mood is everything in a games room – it should be an intimate space, exuding an exclusive and luxurious ambience. Make your game table the centrepiece of the room; in our image, this is a snooker table, but whether your passion is a foosball table, poker table or a mechanical bull, the same should be applied to them.

To create an intimate atmosphere, invest in some low-hanging lights to go over your gaming table, as pictured above. To coordinate with the tones of the wood, our interior stylists recommend buying light shades in the energetic tone of Aurora Red – the perfect colour to add some excitement over your gaming tables, thus enhancing your player experience.

Curtains will create a classically chic air in the room, and it is through your soft furnishings you can unleash the power of Lush Meadow. For your fabric, we suggest Prestigious Sultan Evergreen; this velvety fabric simply oozes sophistication, perfectly mirroring the majestic emerald beauty of Lush Meadow. Sultan Evergreen shimmers gently in the light, illuminating the sumptuousness of the fabric, and generating endless class throughout your decor.

Finalise the room by accessorising your curtains with golden toned curtain poles to round off the elegant motif. To view a vast range of designs, visit our sister website, Poles Direct. Our interior stylists selected the 28mm Swish Elements Lexington Antique Brass Cut Modern Ball pole to showcase in this room inspiration image, but there is a wide selection of shades and finials to choose from, so whether you favour a diamond finial or a simple ball finish, there will be something to suit you.
