Green Shutters Are Trending. Here's Why We Love It!

If you've been browsing any interior related content lately you'll notice that Green Is taking over! From kitchens to front doors, bathrooms to tiles and yes - shutters. With this bold choice becoming one of the most popular choices for window dressings, here's why.

Why Green? Green Is a colour with a certain amount of confidence. Not only is it a calming colour, but it gives a sense of warmth without being too much in your face. Pairing it with natural tones such as wood, stone and linen also helps to create a harmonious look that you won't get with many other colours. As we're currently loving calm, sophisticated and natural designs, it makes sense Green Is trending so much in interior design.

Green Is also very versatile. Whether you want a light sage, pale pistachio or eucalyptus, there is a green shade to suit all homes and rooms.

Do Green Colours Look Great on Shutters? Yes! Shutters have clean lines and bold geometric shapes that pair perfectly with a colour. The pastel shades look amazing on shutters as they give a subtle pop of personality to your room. A sage or mint coloured shutter creates a fresh, sophisticated feel to your room whilst showing you're keeping up with the trends.

Pastel shutters also look amazing on external windows and the front of your property. A light sage colour complements a Victorian or Edwardian bay front perfectly, it just feels like it should be there. You don't want to go for something trendy, you want to go for something that looked like a considered choice.

What Green Shades Are Trending? The most popular green shades are those pastel and light shades: sage, mint, eucalyptus, pistachio and pale willow. They provide a pop of colour without being too much. It gives a fresh feel to your room rather than a bold one. In this maximalist era, it looks amazing to go for a pastel green.

We have a range of pastel green shades available at Jasper & Finch.

Will Green Be a Phase? When considering using this colour for your shutters it is worth knowing if it's a phase. Whilst there are specific shades that will come and go, green has been around for a long time in interior design. We're seeing more pastel shades trending at the moment, and it seems to be a revival rather than a phase. A well-chosen pastel green shutter is unlikely to look dated in 5 years. Whereas some trend colours may, this is one of those choices that will only look better as the room will be designed around them.

Which Rooms Will Pastel Green Shutters Work Well In? Almost all of them! A pastel green shutter in your living room will give a fresh and earthy feel to your room. Especially if paired with natural textures and warm neutrals on the walls. In your kitchen, a pastel green shutter will either complement your green cabinetry or give a stunning contrast. A bedroom in sage or eucalyptus will give you a true relaxing feel. Even your hallways or landings can be transformed with a pastel green shutter to give a pop of life and colour.

How Do Pastel Green Shutters Pair With The Rest Of Your Room? Pastel greens are very easy to work with. Warm white or off whites on your walls will allow your shutters to blend in perfectly. Natural textures such as rattan, linen, jute and oak will compliment the lighter greens. Adding brass and brushed gold will give extra warmth and look amazing with sage and eucalyptus. As mentioned above, the pastel colours rarely clash with anything.
