Trend Report | Mixed Greens

October 5, 2021

Hues of Green

From sage to emerald, green is a lively and lush color, evoking a sense of tranquility. More interior designers want to bridge an indoor-outdoor design by decorating interiors with shades of green and nature-inspired materials. With more people working from home, designers are looking at ways to create an al fresco-influenced ambiance for an indoor space. The color green helps bring outside elements indoors, providing a peaceful beauty with interior comforts.  There is a feeling of coziness with the color green.

Furnishing interiors with potted plants and green ceramic tile is a solution that designers are using to imbue the essence of nature. Green is calming and also grounding––both essential qualities for communal spaces and home offices in addition to bathrooms and kitchens.

Color Coordinating With Green Colorways

  • Pair earthier greens with a range of creams and warm yellows
  • Combine moody greens, like forest green, with warmer, balmy earth tones
  • For timeless decor, use rich jewel tones and pastels
  • For a visually clean aesthetic, use white accents with Jewel or gemstone greens

Whether you cover your walls with sage, moss or Verde, green transports you to a luxuriant, nature-inspired environment. Vibrant emerald green enlivens a room. Brighter shades, such as the color white, paired with emerald, fosters relaxation. Together, the two colors compose a harmonious space. 

While emerald is a deep, rich and elegant green, moss is bright, energizing and reminiscent of spring and new beginnings. To avoid detracting from vibrant and charismatic moss, combine neutrals, like beige, tan or white. 

For a color theme that emboldens interiors, choose bright complementary colors that are of the same value. Using green tile as accents or adding plants indoors softens the look of the room.

Biophilic design is a style that connects urban homes with the natural world. Many different elements can be used to create a biophilic environment—light, space, water, shade, plants, natural forms and non-toxic materials. Recently, biophilic sustainability has become more prolific. Designers are enlisting companies that manufacture sustainable materials, such as recycled glass tile or environmentally friendly materials.

Interior Design Trends in 2021

  • Deeper, richer earth tones
  • Florals and botanical-inspired prints
  • Gem combined with earthy tones
  • Geometric tile patterns and design
  • Large-format tile

Glow™ Glazed Ceramic Wall

Glow™ Sage is a glazed ceramic tile crafted in a large format. Not to be outdone by other Emser shades of green, Glow™ Sage has a quietly bold and beautiful nature-inspired trait. Sage pairs well with neutrals and stands out with subtle mauves, warm pinks and bright apricot.

Splash™ Moss is made with molten glass. The fusing of elements creates a unique incandescent swirl in each tile. Splash™ Moss tile is a stunning and whimsical collection. The moss is subtle, soft and enchanting, perfect for showers, a pool waterline and more. 

Hanami™ Olive is a glazed porcelain stoneware. The inspiration behind Hanami™ comes from a Japanese pastime of observing and enjoying the fleeting beauty of cherry blossoms. Hanami means “flower viewing.” The olive tone is soft and soothing, while the form gives a nod to Japanese architectural ceramics. The Hanami collection is perfect for channeling a zen-like and stunning atmosphere.

Suitable for virtually any room, the calming attraction and striking color selections will be a pleasant eyeful for any room.

H20™ Forest is a playful and serene take on the timeless and trendy subway tile. This aquatic-inspired shade of green strikes a balance between revitalizing and relaxing. The mosaic tile collection will brighten kitchens, bathrooms and any residential wall or fireplace. For an elegant and show-stopping design, couple the H20™ Forest with cream.

HEKSA™ Forest is a captivating green with a geometric hexagon form. It’s made of porcelain and works with any room. The honeycomb design is visually striking and inspiring to gaze out.
