Experience natural energy in your living space by introducing the elegant emerald green, Pantone’s colour of the year for 2013. Says Marian Ward: “Emerald green is fresh, natural and cool. It looks modern with royal blue, refreshing with lighter or brighter green shades, and luxurious with jewels. Paint a focal wall or acquire a few scatter cushions in emerald to bring a new dimension into a room. Cover your table with pottery and glasses in this deep and luxurious colour or even arrange leaves in large emerald vases for display. Scatter your bathroom with emerald decor and relax in your throwback Seventies haven!”
