Every year brings a renewed sense of hope, optimism, and - trends. Be they in the fashion, art, technology or culinary spaces, trend forecasts are always hotly anticipated. The design world is no different - colour predictions, furniture forecasts, and so much more make up the trend landscape for interiors and decor. Here, we explore the hype around Dark Green - considered by many to be a leading colour for 2017. Here's how you can incorporate elements of it into your home. Lanterns

Lanterns have always added a distinct charm to every home. Clubbing this home accessory with a colour trend of the year seems like a good idea. Hang this lantern in a rich green hue outside a window and watch it glow and sparkle beautifully. You could also place it on a dark wood table, for the best possible effect. Of course, if you have a garden or balcony, dotting a few of these around the area will not only provide light, but will also add a fun, retro vibe.

Cushions and Throw Pillows

The beauty of dark green is that it is a jewel tone that can be easily paired with other, darker hues. Make a space really pop by adding dark green cushions in raw silk, or another textured fabric, like linen. Pair with others in rich shades such as burgundy and navy blue. It's best to place these cushions on lighter coloured furniture, otherwise the entire room runs the risk of looking too dark and therefore drab.
