Deep teal is not your everyday blue and not the usual green, but it's a colour that dances somewhere in between. It’s a shade that can bring ocean depths and forest hideaways right into the heart of your home.
This colour loves the limelight, but it also knows how to make everything around it shine. Pair it with raw industrial textures – like concrete floors and exposed metal beams – and it's like deep teal shades were made for this, bringing a sense of calm to the modern edge.
Furniture: Stick with pieces that boast simple lines. A charcoal sofa or a rustic wood table can keep the look grounded while complementing the boldness of deep teal.
Textures: Bring warmth to balance the coolness of the teal. A cushy throw or a shaggy rug can add that inviting touch, making your space a place you want to sink into.
Lighting: The right lighting can turn deep teal from a mere colour into a mood. Go for lamps that cast a soft glow, ensuring the teal looks inviting, not intimidating.
Accents: It’s the little things that count. A picture frame here, a metallic plant pot there, maybe some fresh greenery – they’re like the finishing touches on a masterpiece.
Colours are more about the vibe they set. Deep teal is your go-to for those moments when you want to unwind yet feel the buzz of a brilliant idea just around the corner. It's for those times when your living room should be a sanctuary and a workshop all at once.
Not ready for a full teal takeover? Start small. Toss a teal cushion here, drape a teal blanket there, or lay down a rug with a hint of the hue. These little pops of colour can be your stepping stones to a full-on deep teal dream.
Choosing deep teal is like picking the road less travelled. It’s bold, it’s different, and it is a living room colour idea that’s not just about the trend but about creating an atmosphere. Light it up right, throw in your personal flair, and watch as your room transforms into a cosy, inspired nook that’s all your own.
Going for deep teal is, for those deep dives into your favourite books, or for that blissful 'me time'. It's about making a room where you're free to be yourself, in a setting that's as deep and rich as the colour on your walls.
