Balance With Wall Trim

Here, the dark green walls are cleverly broken up with existing wall moulding, which was left white and painted around. This allows for relief, while also adding structure to the room. Oaky accents bring out the depth of the paint color. Matching velvet pillows, sheets, plants, and a patterned runner also help play off the walls.

Use Traditional Accents
Sometimes, less is more. This traditional-style bedroom doesn't go too outside-the-box when it comes to decor, but each element works together seamlessly. Classic gingham pillows add playfulness, white bedding offers beautiful contrast, and a sculptural bed frame infuses elegance. Don't miss other pretty touches, like dreamy sheer drapes, curvy lamps, and chinoiserie plates hanging above the bed.

Set The Ambience

Never underestimate the power of lighting. A soft yellow-toned glow brings out the warmth and sheen of a dark green, allowing the color to truly shine. Thus, not much extra is needed to make this room stand out. A carved wooden headboard and side table complement the olive shade, while simple embroidered bedding adds visual interest and texture.

Go Two-Toned
Color blocking with two tones is another great way to break up a space. Plus, if you use a dark color on the bottom half — like in this bedroom — it creates the illusion of a headboard! The deep pine green keeps to its warmth, paired with brass decals and neutral hues. Simple striped bedding in a softer green nod to the bottom half of the wall, while white accents in the lamp and decor play off the top half.

Simple, luxe decor makes this sea green bedroom feel like an exhale. A low-profile velvet bed frame sets the tone, alongside gold sconces and midcentury modern style nightstands for a streamlined look. Softly-wrinkled linens with a pop of pink and tan help soothe and balance out the opulence.

Include Pops Of Blue
Pops of blue — like turquoise and sapphire — can transform a dark green bedroom into a breath of fresh air. The coastal palette in this space is so soothing and light, and it doesn't require too many frills. Just opt for some cool patterned pillows and a throw at the end of the bed. Gold accents, as seen in the mirror and lamp, top it off with a bit of glam.

Bring Bohemian Vibes
On the other hand, a deep green can help bring out a playful side.

Mix Prints

Use Natural Materials
Natural materials always pair well with green, as both are found together outdoors. This bedroom uses woven fabrics to dress the bed, atop a jute rug and oaky tables. Wooden slats stretch from the wall to the ceiling, ending at various lengths to create a fun illusion. Similar yet skillful imbalance is presented in the staggered pendants, which mirror the bulb shape of the sconces.

A deep green can get even deeper when paired with black. B&W prints, charcoal bedding, and sheer black drapes create an eerie ambience in this bedroom. Meanwhile, a billowy paper-style lantern softens the look, and gold sconces brighten it up.
