I was inspired to create this navy blue and green color palette by a photo of an eclectic boho bedroom with navy blue walls, rattan furniture, and green plants. In this post, I’ll discuss why this navy blue, olive green, gray, and brown color combination works well in home decor. Then, I’ll provide the color hex codes and the Sherwin-Williams paint color matches.
This post is all about my navy blue and green color palette!
Why This Color Scheme Works Well in Home Decor
My navy blue and green color palette brings a refreshing and natural feel to home decor, making it an excellent choice for creating a grounded and serene environment.
The deep navy provides a rich, calming backdrop that exudes sophistication and depth. This color is particularly effective on accent walls, cabinetry, or larger furniture pieces, offering a dramatic yet elegant foundation.
Earthy greens complement the navy and introduce a sense of tranquility and a touch of nature indoors. These greens work wonderfully in upholstery, decorative pillows, and indoor plants.
The grey hues and rattan brown balance the boldness of the green and navy with their calming influence.
How to Implement This Color Combination
To implement this palette, start by painting a feature wall or key pieces of furniture in a deep navy blue to establish a focal point in the room.
Incorporate the earthy greens through accent pieces such as throw blankets, cushions, or smaller furniture items like ottomans or side tables.
To add warmth and texture, use natural materials like rattan, wicker, or wood in the form of chairs, baskets, or lighting fixtures.
The neutral shades of beige and gray in the palette can be used for flooring, rugs, and additional furniture to create a cohesive and balanced look.
This combination enhances the space’s aesthetic appeal and fosters an eclectic, cozy, and inviting atmosphere that is stylish and comforting.
