When it comes to choosing a colour for your bedroom, few shades can evoke the same sense of tranquillity, sophistication, and connection to nature as deep, rich green hues.

Whether you're looking to create a cosy, cocoon-like sanctuary or a bold, dramatic statement, dark green holds the power to transform any bedroom into a space that's both inviting and visually stunning.

Make panelling pop

Feature wall panelling is all the rage right now, and for good reason. This stylish trend adds flair to your bedroom and can be made even more striking when drenched in a dark green hue like Thunderbolt Pair with light wood furniture, neutral bedding and industrial lighting to further elevate and modernise your space.

Bring the outside in

Green is no doubt the most botanical shade, so if you’re designing your room to be organic and natural, try a shade like Dance With The Wind to bring the outside in. We love how cosy this space looks, and the potted plants, jute rug, and floral bedding tie it all together.

Mirrorball magic

Quirky furniture like a disco ball bar cart will be a talking point of any space, plus its mirrored surface will beautifully refract light around the bedroom. Between that, the gorgeous Galapagos green walls, and mustard yellow bedding, your décor will feel serene yet exciting.

Green, black, and grey

This timeless colour palette takes a muted dark green hue such as Dried Bay Leaf and brings it to life with blacks and greys to create a lovely natural look. The green accent wall paired with light furnishings is one of our favourite combos, and it works well across the home.

Eclectic colours

This beautiful bedroom is a maximalist’s dream! The Dance With The Wind panelling against peachy walls is a striking combination, and the shelf full of trinkets and artwork adds personality to the space. Finish with colourful bedding and mismatched side tables for a look you won’t find anywhere else.

Clean finish

Nothing looks quite as crisp, clean, and elegant as a green and white combo. This stunning room uses our Secret Retreat shade to backdrop a simple, white iron bed frame. If you’re looking for an understated look that’s easy to replicate, this could be it.

Rustic chic

We love exposed brick in a bedroom and how this simple design element can add so much character to your space. Try opting for a subtle shade like Greenish Grey to complement rustic features and distinctive furniture.

Victorian simplicity

The beauty of dark green is that it’s so versatile that even the deepest shades like Himalayan Green work well to cosy up a bedroom. If you have a Victorian fireplace in your bedroom, dark green shades can help amplify their beauty, and when paired with original flooring and gorgeous oak furniture you’ve got something simple yet timeless.

Make it a mural

Looking for something different? Why not incorporate different shades of green like Galapagos in a beautiful hand-painted mural? The effect will be enviable and turn your bedroom into a completely different space. We love this mountainscape, but you could recreate a forest or even the deep sea with our range of dark green colours.

Funky patterns

If you’re an experimental DIYer, you might be more inclined to try combining a shade like Sea Turtle with funky, contrasting patterns to make your décor pop. This striking design feature works well in children’s bedrooms as it is stimulating and colourful, without overwhelming the senses.
