Going Green

Traditionally neutral colours such as creams, beiges and browns are our big sellers over the past few years with brighter colours tending to fall into more of a niche market. However it seems that many people have become rather bored of this quite plain and minimalist look. Interior fashion has moved in a different direction with more and more people choosing to become a bit more daring with their colour schemes and interior furnishings by choosing brighter more vibrant tones. We have seen a sharp increase in the popularity of colours such as teal blue, bright red, fushcia pink and most of all bright green.

Green is a very ‘outdoors’ colour bringing to mind plants, trees and grass. If used correctly having green in your colour scheme can make your room feel more alive and fresh with an outdoor ambience. Our Glamour Grass shaggy rug is a fantastic rug to use for this purpose.

Another reason that green has become so popular is that it is an excellent accent colour. Neutral shades such as beiges and browns can be used in your colour scheme but can sometimes look slightly when used on their own. Adding some green in small amounts as an accent colour to your room can make it much more interesting and visually appealing. These accent colours can be used almost anywhere, in curtains, cushions, ornaments and of course in a rug.

Since the popularity of green rugs has risen we have been quick to respond with a whole host of fresh new designs in green tones. Our brand new Harlequin and Matrix ranges contain several designs which use green as an accent colour such as the MA09-917, MA09-915, MA09-911, MA09-946, HA09-928 and HA09-907. Our new Jeff Banks designer ranges also feature green as an accent colour in many designs including the PC92 Florence, PC90 Antibes Flora, PC97 Sorrento and PC49 Kaleidoscope Garden. Plus we’ve added a whole host of new green shaggies including the Shine Lime Green, Whisper Apple, Jeff Banks Olive, Dumroo Fern and Jasper Forest Green.

All of these new designs are now available along with our current range which already contains hundreds of designs in green. To see them all simply go to our online shop and use our search facility to search by colour for green rugs.
