-
Image
  Contemporary design is entering a richer, more emotive era - one where colour takes centre stage in shaping atmosphere, storytelling, and spatial identity. Gone are the days when cool neutrals and minimalist palettes reigned unchallenged. Today, designers are leaning confidently into the warmth and expressiveness of nature-inspired hues that feel both grounded and elevated.   Octave by Molteni&C   At the forefront of this shift are deep, verdant greens - spanning mossy botanicals, olive tones, and mineral-rich shades. These colours bring a quiet strength to interiors. Whether expressed through velvety upholstery, stone surfaces, or lacquered finishes, darker greens have the rare ability to soothe and anchor a space without overpowering it.    Zeus by Fama   These warm shades infuse rooms with a sense of calm and composure, offering a visually rich alternative to colder greys and stark whites. Their connection to the natural world makes them feel inn...
